About me

Hello, my name is Michelle. I believe therapy is a time to examine internalized experiences that shape our perspectives and behaviors. Engaging in introspective work together can challenge us to reframe maladaptive thoughts. I aim to assist clients with managing emotional dysregulation and symptoms associated with depression, anxiety, and trauma in a safe, nonjudgmental space. I hope to foster growth and strengthen coping skills during difficult transitional points in a person’s life. I am interested in exploring my clients' family of origin and attachment styles. I have a special sensitivity to sociocultural factors and intergenerational trauma. I embrace the complexities that make up the lived experiences of my clients and affirm their unique identities.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

The initial intake is a time to better understand your presenting concerns and overview of your background history.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Life presents us with the full spectrum experiences. Learning skills to process and cope with difficult moments allows us to grow and thrive. I hope to assist you with connecting with your internal processes and gain meaningful insights.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I welcome all individuals looking to deepen their relationship with themselves and others. I take a collaborative organic approach to therapy while embracing humor throughout the process. Because of the limitations of virtual therapy sessions, individuals with high acuity symptoms may not be suited for my practice. Please note that I am not accepting couples/conjoint therapy clients through insurance at this time. Couples/conjoint sessions will be billed the cash pay rate of $250. Please reach out 48 hours prior to session to request for additional couples therapy consents.

My treatment methods

Psychodynamic

Therapy offers an unbiased environment to think critically and objectively about how one's experiences shape their thoughts and behaviors. I believe therapy is a layered process that builds on itself. Together we will seek to identify maladaptive patterns and challenge deeply ingrained ideas and behaviors that cause distress.

This was my first appointment. Michelle was warm, patient and gave me exactly what I needed. A safe place to talk.

Very considerate and helpful, was not specialized in what I needed in the moment but was a help nonetheless!

This was only my introductory session with Michelle and she made it very easy to discuss my goals and current concerns I would like to address. She was very patient to listen to me without interruption but guided the conversation without awkward pause. She also appeared very engaged and empathetic the entire session. I look forward to more sessions with her in the future.
