So far it’s been a pleasure to work with Michelle. She is kind and compassionate and reminds me to be kind to myself which is a reminder I always need. She focuses on strength based therapy which helps remind me when I feel defeated.

I knew I would appreciate the convenience and privacy of in-home therapy via video, but I was prepared to need several attempts until I met someone I was comfortable talking to. I am grateful that I found Michelle in the very first therapist I was matched with - she is insightful, friendly, and a wonderful listener. I'm amazed at how quickly I was able to gel with her, and feel great about the progress I have made with her help.
