I am a Christian therapist who specializes in healing relationships. I am certified in Equine Assisted Psychotherapy which has helped children and adults overcome the results of PTSD and abuse. I have over 25 years experience in law enforcement and a passion for police and military families. I created Encouragers Counseling & Training Centers, Inc.

I also have a Professional Practice named Encouragers Family Counseling who takes Kaiser, Medi-Cal and IEHP.

Hi there, I'm Michelle, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both California and Utah. I have been providing therapy services for 5 years and have worked with children, adolescents, and adults. I have been trained and certified in trauma treatment, and my other areas of expertise are anxiety, depression, foster care/adoption, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. I offer both Christian-based and secular therapy. I am an eclectic therapist and pull from many different modalities including cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, psychodynamic, acceptance and commitment, and positive psychology therapy approaches.

I am looking for clients that are ready to get to work and make lasting change possible in their lives. My style is centered on creating a direct partnership with my clients in order to make change happen rather than continue to sit in the problem. I am very well versed in working with all aspects of addiction, anxiety, depression, life changes, sexual abuse, trauma & PTSD, and day to day living concerns, to name a few, for all individuals, couples & families.

Frustrated with your: relationship? sex life? child? I am trained in 2nd level, Gottman Method, a specialty that started with couples. John Gottman, the author of, "7 Principles of Marriage," is known for predicting divorce with 90% accuracy, has been influential over my career. The Gottman Method has transformed my practice to focusing on couples, parenting, and children. If you're looking for guidance through a challenging situation with your children, partner or anyone else, I look forward to working with you to accomplish your goals.

We are passionate about empowering individuals, couples, and families improve their quality of life in the face of adversity. In this healing journey, therapy is a collaborative process where you discover your inner strengths that aids in overcoming life's challenges and promote personal growth. It is about helping you make connections, resolve issues at its roots, and heal in a safe nonjudgmental environment.

Do you ever ask yourself, "Why do I keep doing the same things but expect different outcomes?" Or "Do I look at the world differently than all my family and friends?" Life can feel stressful, overwhelming, and out of control at times. I try to help life feel a little bit more manageable and work through issues at your own pace. Psychotherapy is about an exploration of self and the world around you. As a psychotherapist, I am here to provide guidance through this exploration in a safe place and to improve interaction with those you love.

My focus is to develop a relationship with the client. This is called the two person model which is different than the old fashion practice where the doctor is one up and the client is one down. Rather, the two person model attempts to understand the client through questions and mutual discussion. I am not a silent therapist. I give feedback and remain fully engaged with the patient. Together we build a rapport. I adhere to a humanistic approach.

Blending conventional and alternative approaches I empower children, adolescents, and adults to reach their therapeutic goals. It is my belief that all children, regardless of age or race, speak their own unique language based on their unique life experiences. This language expresses who they are and what they need in order to live a more functional and productive life. My mission is to interpret that language and offer innovative strategies that foster positive growth and maturity. It is not only a challenge to change, grow, and learn. As a member of the human race, I feel it is an obligation!

I've been in private practice for several years and in the field for over 20 years, working with adults, adolescents and children who have had relational issues, depression, anxiety and a number of other mental health issues. I believe most of us go through periods in our lives when things get to be too much and our functioning is affected. I help my clients to determine what the root issues are and to address them as effectively as possible by working with their strengths in order to increase insight and make behavioral changes that will alleviate the problems.

I am a licensed clinical psychologist with extensive experience in providing psychotherapy. I currently work with adults who suffer from an array of psychological problems including but not limited to depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, and relationship problems. I am especially sensitive to cultural and gender issues and provide a personalized and integrated therapeutic approach using a combination of therapies: humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavioral, and family systems to help improve the individual's well-being, mental health, and relationships.

Even the children of dedicated, responsible parents can develop behavioral or emotional problems as they move through childhood and adolescence. Sometimes the acting out or other worrisome behaviors occur only at home. Other times, the difficulties erupt at school. Or both. Perhaps what you or the school has tried isn't working. You may be blaming yourself even though it is not your fault. At these times, an experienced child therapist can help you and your family get back on track.
