What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Our initial meeting will be a consultation via phone. We will dedicate time to establishing a connection, determining what your needs and goals are. This session will provide an opportunity for discussion and clarification about our therapeutic partnership and objectives. If we are a good match, we will schedule a time for an intake and future sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Michaela has two kids, a good sense of humor, nurturing, and has been through life's ups and downs just like many of her clients, so she understands the struggles experienced by all. Additionally, Michaela's greatest strength is having experience working within jails, hospitals, outpatient mental health, home health and a managed care plan, which equips Michaela to understand many of life challenges.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

Michaela's ideal client is one who is willing to become the best version of themselves and looking to understand problematic behaviors.
