Open-minded

I am a therapist with over 30 years of experience helping people. I enjoy helping people overcome challenges and move toward their goals. The focus of my work is helping people develop healthy coping skills so they can grow and change.

I think my strength as a therapist is my ability to create a strong therapeutic relationship.

My goal is to provide a safe and nurturing therapeutic space for people to explore their thoughts and feelings so they can move forward.

First session

In our first session I will be gathering information so I can better understand your concerns. We will work together to identify what your treatment goals are. We will start to identify healthy coping skills so you can start to feel better right away.

Strengths

I think my strength as a therapist is my ability to create a strong therapeutic relationship. I work to create a safe therapeutic environment where clients can feel free to share their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement or criticism. My focus is on empowering clients to be able to overcome challenges and move forward.

Ideal clients

I have a great deal of experience treating mood disorders, personality disorders, life transitions, LGBTQ community, women's issues, marital issues, and family issues.

Treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Exploring your thoughts and changing how you think can have a profound impact on your emotions. Through therapy you can become more aware of thoughts that are negatively impacting you, and replace them with healthier ways of thinking. Positive thoughts lead to positive feelings and positive behaviors.

Strength-Based

Therapy will help you to tap into the strengths inside of you that will help you grow and change. I will assist you in identifying and building upon your strengths.

Positive Psychology

Our goal in therapy will be to help shift your focus to your strengths and what is going well in your life. We will work to help you feel empowered to overcome challenges and reach your goals.

Supportive

My job is to provide a safe, non-judgmental place to discuss your issues. We will work together to explore your thoughts and feelings, and to help you overcome the issues holding you back.

This was a very unique session for me. I felt safe and heard. She asked questions in a way that made them easy to answer, and gave me the time I need to answer if needed. I feel even better after the session, and look forward to working with Michelle going forward.
