Hello, I'm Michelle. After many years of working in the child welfare field as a caseworker and a supervisor, I decided to start a career as a therapist. It was more important to me to find out what is occurring in people’s lives and how it is impacting their ability to move forward. I currently hold an MA in Counseling Psychology and am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and licensed addtiction counselor. (LAC).


My therapeutic work is with those who struggle with trauma, depression, anxiety, substance abuse issues, homelessness, immediate crisis situations, and child abuse and neglect. The individuals that I provide counseling services for are currently experiencing homelessness, job loss, grief and loss, child welfare and legal issues; physical and mental illness of a family member; domestic violence, mid-life crisis, parent-child conflict, relationship issues, adolescents with behavioral/mental health issues; and midlife and transition issues.


I strongly believe in the person-centered approach because I believe that a person should be able to make their own choices within their life without fear of being judged by others. I believe that people learn best if they give themselves permission to make mistakes and learn from their own misconceptions in their own time. The person-centered therapeutic approach goes hand in hand with my personality because I believe everyone has their own life to live and if someone is going to be a part of a person’s life, one should leave their bias and opinions out the door.


I want you to know that if you choose to do counseling with me, it is a safe place to be yourself and you can speak about whatever you need to talk about without fear of being judged. I entered into counseling knowing that everyone has a past and a story to tell, and everyone should be able to open up in their own time. Counseling means not only building a rapport, but forming a relationship with my client so that my client feels comfortable enough about going on the journey of addressing their life issues with me being their therapist. Lastly, my primary goal is to help others work towards self-growth and find their way in life and me showing unconditional positive regard for the person that I’m serving. Remember, everyone is the author of their own life!


If you're ready to start your journey towards self-growth and finding your way in life, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
