Michelle is very easy to talk to and open up with. She asks just the right number of questions to get a better understanding of a situation or topic before she responds. She provides worksheets and other resources to assist the client in working through a topic. She also gives homework and is willing to pray with you and over you if needed.
I would recommend her to others.

From the first therapy session, Michelle made me feel heard, understood and valued. Just like any medical care team you need to have people who listen and care. She established an immediate rapport and I felt ease with sharing issues. Michelle provided a foundation for trust inspiring me to continue to improve.

I have only had three sessions with Michelle but it only took one to realize that I found a counselor/therapist that could actually help me. I appreciate the way she guides our sessions and feel that her questions, while tough to answer at times, are excellent models for what I should be asking myself. Looking forward to growing more with her support.
