My approach to therapy is deeply rooted in reverence for you and the power of your story. We’ll utilize curiosity, practical suggestions, and fearless self-awareness to build self-attunement and tangible change.
With a strong foundation in community mental health and trauma-informed care, I've worked across multiple settings including partial hospitalization programs, schools, and therapy clinics. I have treated OCD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder and Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRB) at Rogers Behavioral Health since 2022.
I’m especially passionate about working with individuals and relationships navigating OCD, anxiety, trauma, identity exploration, and life transitions - particulary within the queer and ethical non-monogamy (ENM) communities. I specialize in treating sexual and other taboo forms of OCD, as well as exploring the intersection of OCD with marginalized identities. Together, we work to manage and move through anxiety so you can meet yourself on the other side with greater clarity. For deeper insight into your true wants and needs and summoning the courage to create a life grounded in freedom, joy, and meaningful connection.

Therapy is a process of change. Changing what no longer works and moving toward what feels clearer and simpler. I specialize in helping people who feel stuck or overwhelmed, including creatives, nurturers, and innovators. I help executives navigate complex workplace demands. I help you sharpen your edge while leading with integrity and purpose. Together, we address concerns by exploring any stressors, habits, doubts, experiences, and patterns impacting your life. I incorporate constructive insights and practical solutions with humor, warmth, and hope.
The past 19 years in this field have been deeply rewarding, and it's a privilege to be entrusted with the life stories and vulnerabilities of those we help. Each moment of awareness and transformation is a meaningful step forward and witnessing this is such an honor. I look foward to supporting you every step of the way too!

For many years, I’ve immersed myself in both psychology and spirituality. I feel so fortunate to be part of a field focused on personal growth—where everything I learn helps me serve others, and each experience deepens my own journey, too. I have a deep respect for everyone I meet, honoring their unique backgrounds and experiences. Life’s challenges can be incredibly tough, and needing support is a natural and important part of the journey.

Navigating our own individual lives in our intense world can be very difficult. It's normal to feel overwhelmed by the challenges and the thoughts and emotions that come with life. Are you feeling overwhelmed, depressed, stressed, confused, angry and/or anxious? Struggling with challenges of parenting, relationships and work-life balance? Together we will create a safe space for you to explore where you are stuck and how to work with your unique challenges. My intention as your therapist is to approach our work with compassion, curiosity and unconditional positive regard for your process.

Hi, my name is Michelle and I am a doctorate-prepared, dual- certified nurse practitioner (FNP-BC & PMHNP-BC). The interactions that occur between our bodies, minds, and environment have always piqued my curiosity. This curiosity has taken me on a plethora of excursions as I have learned how we come to be such distinct individuals. The medical specialty that makes the most sense to me is psychiatry and the bio-psycho-social approach, which considers all facets of a person's life.

Are you experiencing stress as a result of challenges in a romantic partnership/marriage? Are you struggling over whether to bring a new partner into your family, post-divorce or separation? Over 60% of blended families in the U.S. do not succeed and this impacts children's mental health. I help couples in conflict or those who have grown apart create a more loving home using evidence-based methods, including the Gottman Method, Terry Real's Relational Life and Bader-Pearson's developmental method. I utilize compassion- and mindfulness-based methods to improve your parenting AND your partnership at the same time, while addressing the underlying causes of conflicts. I work with adults and sometimes their young adult children.
