Hi, I'm Michelle! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Connecticut and I want to start by saying how excited I am for you to be here! You are taking the first step in your healing journey and I encourage you to pause and celebrate this moment. Beginning this journey can be intimidating but it’s also incredibly empowering. I am passionate about supporting young adults 18+ who are struggling with self-esteem issues, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and other challenges. My goal is to help those who feel lost, stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected move beyond these feelings and cultivate the life they truly desire—whether that means finding inner peace, building confidence, fostering compassion, deepening connections, or achieving a balanced life. Together, we will work to reframe unhelpful thinking patterns, develop assertive communication skills, define your core values, and set healthy boundaries. My aim is to empower you to create both the inner and outer world you envision, enhancing your overall well-being and quality of life. Additionally, I specialize in assisting those struggling with infertility. This journey can be emotionally taxing and isolating, affecting your relationships and other aspects of your life. I am here to provide a safe, understanding space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings. Step by step, we will navigate this challenging time together. When you're ready to take the next step in your healing journey, schedule our first session, and let’s work together to achieve your goals. If you do not see the appointment time you want please reach out to me directly to schedule. My contact information is provided on my website below.

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

In our first session together we will start with getting to know one another. We will also explore what brought you to therapy and what you hope to get out of our work together.

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

My greatest strengths as a provider are my down-to-earth nature and use of humor in my practice. I am also fiercely passionate about what I do and completely invested in my client's healing journeys. I genuinely care about your quality of life and am dedicated to being a catalyst for change, helping you create the life you dream of.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT helps us identify unhelpful thinking patterns that negatively impact our feelings and how we respond (or behave) due to those thoughts and feelings. Together we will identify your unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical strategies to bring about immediate positive changes to improve your quality of life.

Eclectic

In my practice I use an eclectic approach when working with clients. I see each client as an individual with their own unique needs and then match the approach to meet the client where they are at. Healing is not a one size fits all journey so together we will find what works best for you so you can begin to cultivate the changes you wish to see for yourself.
