If you’re looking for answers, I don’t have them. But if you’re looking for someone to help you face the tough questions, you’re in the right place. Questions like “Why do I feel stuck?”, “What do I truly want?”, or “How can I change my circumstances?” can be hard to navigate on your own. I have 20 years of experience helping patients reclaim their happiness from the effects of anxiety, depression, loss of motivation, stress and perfectionism. I work with individuals, mother-daughter relationships, siblings, and help couples redefine their relationships after time or troubles erode familiar routes to connection. Therapy can help.

Relationships are a core aspect of humanity and are the basis of my therapeutic approach. I have always had a passion for connection and am drawn to understanding people’s thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

There are times when everyone needs support, advice and new ways of coping. Whether you are struggling with a particular issue or just feel "stuck", I can help. As a licensed clinician and the founder of PRP, I have spent the last 17 years studying evidence and science based approaches to psychotherapy and the treatment of emotional/psychological issues in some of the country's best universities, including Northwestern University and UW-Madison. These experiences have allowed me to develop a holistic therapeutic approach where I integrate complementary researched-informed modalities to offer personalized and effective treatments.

Healing begins when we are seen and heard, and can finally see & hear ourselves more clearly. Authentically. If you notice persistent negative thoughts, feel anxious when alone and/or with others, find yourself worrying, lack the motivation to accomplish your goals, are not sure what your goals are, and/or often feel frustrated with others, I believe I can help you. You will learn to reduce unnecessary mind chatter and focus on what's truly important to you. I am an active listener who will provide the ear for you to explore your habits, thoughts, and feelings and from there come closer to designing the life you want.

Aging can be difficult--whether your own or in people you love. You might be grieving the loss of treasured relationships, frustrated with declining health, struggling with caregiving and changing roles ... or simply wanting to age gracefully. Many people experience worry, depression, and anger at times like this; others feel tired or overwhelmed; few know where to turn for information and guidance you can trust, from people who might understand. Aging is my specialty, and I would like the chance to help you reach some peace with your midlife crisis, life transition, grief or pain, caregiving, ... your life.

Currently accepting new 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.

People often come to therapy seeking strength and motivation to improve their lives and simply to feel better. I will work with you to discover and connect with what motivates you in a warm and practical atmosphere that supports self-acceptance, growth and confidence in your own unique abilities. A strong connection with self (values, boundaries, strengths, wants and needs) is the foundation for our meaningful connections with others. Trauma, life transitions, and the general messiness of life can sometimes require us to re-connect with self in a new way. Talk therapy can provide the space to create new connections.

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.
