I’ve helped people who struggle with depression, anxiety, panic attacks, trauma (past or present), bullying, relationship issues, anger, substance abuse, transitional phases, divorce, grief/loss, and negative habitual patterns.
I’m a bilingual therapist who helps individuals seeking to grow cognitively, emotionally, relationally, and/or spiritually. At one point or another, people will experience seasons of discomfort, feeling stuck, or general dissatisfaction with an area of life. I help people untangle these confusing seasons and make sense of this particular growing stage.

Michelle in the past has worked in the school setting providing counseling to historically underserved youth, in a children’s advocacy center with survivors of child abuse and their non-offending family members, and in a domestic violence agency, where she worked with both victims and their children in their healing process and with the perpetrators of DV.

Intrinsically, Michelle believes we are all capable of accomplishing our own individual goals of growth, healing, and/or change when we’re open to trusting the therapeutic process. Michelle values the importance of a strong therapeutic bond with her clients, built on mutual respect, honesty, genuine rapport, and therapeutic humor. She also believes that therapy should be a collaborative journey with her clients and the caregivers of her child clients.

I specialize in treating victims of sexual, physical, emotional and psychological abuse, family members and loved ones of those impacted by addiction, PTSD, dissociative disorders and anxiety related disorders.
My clients would describe me as competent, easy to talk to and compassionate. I am passionate about creating an environment where you can feel safe and heard. Carl Rogers once said, “We think we listen, but very rarely do we listen with real understanding, true empathy. Yet listening, of this very special kind, is one of the most potent forces for change that I know.” I believe that therapeutic work is most helpful when you can sense that you are working with a therapist who genuinely cares and will listen. From that foundation, there will also be space for you to reflect and receive insight that will aid in meeting your goals.

If you are stressed, stuck, hurt, struggling in your relationships, or have lost your way, therapy can be a compassionate, non-judgmental space to heal, grow, and find new direction. I strive to provide a safe, collaborative environment to explore patterns and beliefs that might be inhibiting your natural tendency toward growth and connection, to heal from traumatic or painful experiences, to gain insight, improve relationships, and help you get unstuck to live into your vision for your life. I will meet you wherever you are in terms of faith, life experiences, and values.

Marital issues, grief, trauma, childhood issues, abuse, depression and anxiety are a few of the concerns I will treat.
Counseling requires a relationship based on trust and mutual respect. My goal for counseling is that you and I will understand and trust one another, identifying your goals and working to overcome whatever obstacles are in your way. I believe that anyone who seeks counseling does so because of a desire to live your best life, and my desire is to help you do just that. With over 20 years of experience as a licensed counselor, I will help you to move toward solutions that will bring about positive change. While my clinical training and biblical worldview inform my approach, your goals and needs are the priority of each session.

My ideal client is itching for a change, even if they are unsure a change is possible. They may find themselves experiencing recurrent uncomfortable emotions (grief, depression, shame, anxiety), painful relationship dynamics, or a deep longing to heal a past trauma (sexual abuse or family violence). I cary the belief that change is possible and healing is feasible even when it may feel far off. My work is rooted in attachment theory- which means I hold authenticity, compassion, connection, and unrelenting hope at the center of every session.
