About me
I have inspired and motivated many interesting individuals, who make the choice, like you, to seek counseling. Our mutual goal is to make dynamic changes in your life. I offer a dedicated, experienced and professional listening ear, compassionate spirit, and a clear, supportive guiding voice. Learn to develop your strengths, coping skills, and energy so that you can better enjoy your life. Our focus is to change, to solve the problems at hand, and to learn how to problem solve for the future, and create lasting differences for an improved lifestyle. Energizing ourselves to face challenges and changes, celebrating moments and sustaining steps into 'new normal' are the hallmarks of effective
collaboration in our counseling setting. After 35 + years of experience, I have learned from so many people, and hopefully they have learned also from our think-out-loud-in-a-safe-space time together. Some favorite change words: creativity, resilience, mindfulness, mutuality.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Michelle Batacan Alexander. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Michelle is a very empathetic therapist, that relates to you by sharing anecdotes of herself. She creates a judgment-free zone that made me feel comfortable sharing all my emotions! I wholeheartedly recommend her.

Working with michelle has given me a more enlightening perspective on my issues that I face. She's attentive and understanding of my concerns and helps me to better understand and control my problems.
She is a very empathetic and professional therapist. She is helpful in finding out what my deepest problems are.
Two sessions so far. Michelle has been very flexible to help me with my actual needs and not just the concerns I signed up for originally. The breadth of her experience ensures that she can help the entirety of me, and not just locking into my initial concerns.
Michelle is clearly able to use her vast experience and knowledge to great effect.
She is comfortable with all aspects of therapy.
