I'm a licensed therapist in Florida with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. Throughout my career, I've worked with clients across the lifespan, helping them navigate depression, anxiety, trauma, and a wide range of mental health concerns.
My approach is deeply person-centered and trauma-informed. I believe in meeting each client where they are, with genuine respect for their unique values, beliefs, and identities. Whether you're exploring questions of faith, identity, relationships, or life purpose, I'm committed to creating a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly heard and supported.
I draw from evidence-based therapeutic practices to address concerns including trauma and abuse, self-esteem, communication challenges, grief, attachment issues, life transitions, and much more. I'm particularly skilled at helping clients work through complex emotions like shame, guilt, and abandonment, while also building resilience and self-compassion.
My goal is to walk alongside you with authenticity, curiosity, and care—honoring your strengths while supporting meaningful growth at your own pace. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to be part of your journey.

My first session with Michele went so great! She made me feel validated and seen, which is something I haven’t gotten with a previous therapist that I worked with. It made me seem like she really cared about getting to the root of what I want to work through and processing everything.

I’ve just had a couple of sessions with Michele & I feel my authentic self and am able to share with no judgment. I feel like I’ve found a friend whom I can trust & rely. The most important thing she has encouraged me to do is to leave her a message anytime I’m feeling certain emotions. I was very much looking for a platform like this where I can share my inner voice/ emotions in the moment & use those examples to work with my therapist . I will definitely be writing another review as I get more sessions in. Thank you Michele - you’re truly awesome & thank you BetterHelp.

I found Michele at a time in my life when everything felt chaotic and scrambled. I'd been working so hard on my own to find my footing, but there always seemed to be a barrier in my way. Michele was the perfect mix of compassionate and objective. She never judged me or my situation(s) and helped me to feel fully supported as we moved through some sticky life happenings. She always provided additional resources that I could access outside of our sessions and prompt replies to any messages I sent needing a little extra support. In short, if you're looking for a balanced sounding board, Michele is your lady! I highly recommend her and will certainly seek her out again in the future if I need therapy.
