My counseling approach is collaborative, and client focused and I would be honored to work with you.

Michelle listens with all her heart. She is kind and compassionate but also honest and frank. She does not tell you what to do, she helps you find that answer for yourself. I appreciate her so much!!

Michelle is fabulous. She’s easy to talk to, caring, and an extremely thoughtful listener. I look forward to her educated views and have always felt so much better and stronger after talking with her.

I am forever grateful for getting Michelle as my therapist. I recognize that not everyone can say they hit the nail on the head with their first therapy experience, but I absolutely did. She has a way of drawing out the things that maybe you’re not exactly great at expressing but in such a comfortable and not awkward way. The insight she offers is extremely thought provoking and I will forever have those little nuggets and tools she has shared in my pocket forever. I could not be more happy or recommend her more!
