Michelle Rincon

My communication style

I believe that psychological theories are simply different ways of explaining the human experience, so I use the language and strategies that make the most sense for you. At the core, I hold the belief that, with willingness and support, each of us has the capacity to grow toward the life we envision.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey into this field began with personal loss--my father passed away when I was 13, an experience that deeply shaped how I saw myself, others, and the world. I struggled with anxiety and depression throughout adolescence and early adulthood, which gave me an intimate understanding of how our minds and bodies adapt to hardship.

My goals for you

I see goal-setting as a collaborative process--we work together to define what feels meaningful and realistic for you. Part of this means acknowledging that change can bring discomfort, whether that’s uncertainty, fear, or even grief, and learning how to move through those feelings with support.

Our first session

Our first session will feel a little different from the ones that follow. It’s a mix of introductions and an intake process, where I’ll ask questions to understand your background, concerns, and goals.
