Hey, I’m Michelle! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor as well as a Board Certified TeleMental Health Counselor. Life can bring some really big changes both mentally and physically for us. I can provide a safe, secure place for you to process all of these changes, while helping you find the tools that can ease your daily stress moving forward. In our work, we will discuss what is bothering you now, as well as look back at previous traumas that may be contributing to your current stress levels.
I will provide a nonjudgemental, compassionate environment to help you feel comfortable expressing yourself. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you explore your thoughts, behaviors, and emotions while working through the process of change. My goal is to empower you to feel more confident and secure in your life and decision making.
Too often fear, self-doubt, and judgement get in our way. I want to help you see your potential and show you that you are enough. Whenever you’re ready, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I would be honored to hear your story and support you through this time in your life.
Take the first step to help. Call or Michelle Shields Maki now - (334) 212-5540
