Michelle Consavage
I am a licensed clinical therapist and Reiki Master Teacher in Michigan with 27 years of professional work experience. I use a unique holistic/spiritual approach, incorporating the mind, body, and soul as they all go hand in hand. I utilize mindfulness techniques to really help you retrain the brain from negative thoughts that often lead us down the rabbit hole of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness that can keep us stuck. I can provide guidance with career, relationships, trauma, depression, anxiety, chronic pain, low self-esteem, codependency, stress management, grief/loss, spiritual healing, manage being an empath or highly sensitive person, neurodivergent, and healing on all levels!
I have often been told that my combination of my Holistic modalities combined with my intuition is what makes my approach unique.
First session
The first couple of sessions are really about getting to know each other. I gather information about what you are looking for and what brought you into therapy. Remember this your treatment, and I want to make sure the goals are tailored to what you need and want. If you're not exactly sure, then I can help you with that as well and make recommendations. It can be scary opening up about personal issues with a stranger! I want you to feel as comfortable as possible during this process!
Strengths
As I explained a little bit of my personal journey above my therapeutic approach takes into consideration the mind, body, and spirit. I have often been told that my combination of my Holistic modalities combined with my intuition is what makes my approach unique. I am very empathic and also work with others that are empathic or highly sensitive as this can be a very great gift! However, at the same time very challenging if you’re not sure how to manage it!
Ideal clients
My communication style: I am very open and honest, and think it is crucial to validate and reflect your emotions to make sure I fully understand what you are expressing. I help you process through the emotions and help you gain clarity on possible interventions to help you with specific concerns. I think it is important to meet the client where they are at and let them take the lead in their treatment using a person-centered approach. I hope to have the opportunity to help you figure out what your next steps are on your life path. You deserve all the infinite possibilities your heart desires!
Treatment methods
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
My techniques that I use depend on each individual and where they are at. I have many tools that I have learned over the years. I use a combination of mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy, somatic regulation of your nervous system, strength-based modalities that are uniquely tailored to each individual. I have always been passionate and very empathetic when helping others to feel empowered in who they are! "Empathy is the medicine the world needs." Dr. Judith Orloff. I am also a Reiki Master Teacher and can implement this into treatment only if this is something you choose.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I utilize mindfulness techniques to really help you retrain the brain from negative thoughts that often lead us down the rabbit hole of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness that can keep us stuck. I can provide guidance with career, relationships, trauma, depression, anxiety, chronic pain, low self-esteem, codependency, stress management, grief/loss, spiritual healing, manage being an empath or highly sensitive person, and healing on all levels!
Strength-Based
I think it's extremely important to recognize thought patterns, limited beliefs, repeated behaviors, and old programming that get in the way of our everyday life. This might include relationships, your career, how you view yourself, and how you hold yourself back.
