New to Grow
Hi, I'm Michelé, as Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I understand that healing does not happen in a vacuum. My practice is dedicated to providing a transformative space where your lived experience is not just seen, but deeply honored. I specialize in helping high-achieving individuals particularly first-generation professionals of all backgrounds—navigate the unique pressure of "being the first" while managing the weight of expectations. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative and rooted in a holistic perspective.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Let's create a space where there’s no need for code-switching and you can feel safe to explore all the parts of you. If you are seeking a therapist who is a a dedicated advocate for the 'in-betweeners'—the bridge-builders and the cycle-breakers, let’s begin the work of breaking down those barriers and coming home to yourself.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My unique blend of social work and psychotherapy allows me to provide comprehensive and compassionate care to those seeking support. I believe that healing requires a toolkit as diverse as the individuals I serve. My work is grounded in a client-centered approach, meaning you are the expert of your own life. I am here to provide the clinical guidance and steady support to help you unlock your own truth.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I utilize a blend of somatic and cognitive therapies that engages both the mind and the nervous system including EMDR, Parts Work, with a Person-Centered and Culturally Attuned approach. We can focus on cultural dynamics, address imposter syndrome, explore identity and values during life transitions, and manage symptoms of anxiety, depression, and burnout.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a form of psychotherapy primarily used to treat individuals who have experienced trauma or distressing events, and is effective in addressing conditions like anxiety, depression and other emotional challenges.
