I have used art therapy to help clients with Depression, Anxiety, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)/trauma, and Executive Dysfunction.
My name is Michelle Waters and I am a licensed counselor (LCPC) and art therapist (ATR). My passion is to help people find their inner power and cultivate the true self through art and talk therapy. I believe that creating art with my clients provides a safe space to discuss issues that might be challenging to talk about otherwise. Therapy is tough, but embedding art in that process takes some of the pressure off and helps develop positive and healthy coping skills. Some of my favorite materials to work with include ceramics, drawing, comics, painting, crochet, and sewing.

We have an innate drive to heal and grow. Therapy is designed to connect us with the truest expression of ourselves, not driven by anxiety or reactivity.

So often we go through life disconnected, tending to the needs of others, ignoring our own. I can help you reflect on YOUR purpose and goals. Prioritize your wellness and uncover patterns keeping you stuck. If old wounds and habits are barriers to forward movement we can explore how past traumas influence you today. If anxiety and worry is stopping you from living life to the fullest we can build coping skills, challenge unhelpful thinking and create action steps to face your fears. You can build a sense of safety that that allows you to feel more relaxed and confident.

Some of the common presenting concerns I enjoy working with are depression, anxiety, family of origin issues, acculturation, stress related to various life events (divorce, career changes, becoming a parent, loss).
I'm currently accepting new individual and couples clients. In my work, I like to combine short-term approaches that will help you figure out how to feel better now with long-term approaches designed to take a closer look at some repeating patterns and their origins to bring lasting changes to your life. Most clients I see in my practice experience some sort of dissatisfaction in their relationships. Whether it is a relationship with a romantic partner, parent, friend or boss, there are always ways to make changes in order to bring more happiness into your life however challenging this task might be.

I have over 40 years experience working with children, adolescents, and adults with histories of depression, anxiety, ADHD, ASD, and substance use problems.
Life is oftentimes unsatisfactory and stressful which causes emotional pain and suffering in our daily lives. We learn to cope with this suffering by clinging to negative thoughts, feelings, and reactivities that seem inescapable. My purpose in therapy is to bring an empathic and compassionate awareness and understanding of these negative attachments and provide practices to generate a positive wholesome sense of self and well-being.

I have comprehensive training and experience working with men and women struggling with complicated grief, depression, anxiety, anger, addiction, personality disorders and traumatic childhood experiences.
All of us experience the feeling of being stuck in some way, perhaps frustrated by challenging life circumstances, discouraged by unfulfilling relationships or just generally stirred up by the vague sense that something is just not working. Through the course of my experience, I have come to believe deeply in the power of the therapeutic relationship and the way in which a collaboration with a thoughtful, compassionate and dedicated therapist can be the catalyst for real change.

Safety, trust and encouragement are imperative ingredients to a successful therapeutic relationship. As a seasoned therapist my ideal client seeks a collaborative relationship and is eager to invest in greater self-understanding and willingness to take action. Clients battling stress-related issues that compromise performance in work, school, or intimate relationships are a good match. Transforming anxiety, despair, and self-doubt into courage, inspiration, and confidence is my strength. I'm comfortable addressing thoughts that disempower or emotions that are frightening.
