Michele Cyr

My communication style

I set a supportive tone, actively listening and guiding us in areas that seem significant to explore. I'm strong on relationship building, modeling open, honest communication. I'll always be affirming and supportive, and I enjoy using humor when appropriate because laughter is so important.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey is rooted in adverse childhood experiences in a family affected by divorce and step-family dynamics. I knew as a teenager I wanted to serve others, especially children, having been impacted by bad therapy experiences myself. I believe all have a right to a safe, supportive existence.

My goals for you

I approach goal-setting by establishing short and long-term goals with timelines, prioritizing each. Together, we'll identify aspects of your life most urgently needing focus and attention, deciding upon interventions, techniques, and tools that will get you there not just faster, but healthier.

Our first session

It's a get-to-know-you session to help you decide if I'm the right therapist for you. We'll discuss your background, reasons for starting therapy, establish a session frequency that works for you, and set goals you'd like to work on. I want you to ask all your questions about the therapy process.

I identify as...

• Female
• Caucasian or White
• Buddhist, Christian, Non-denominational, Spiritual, Unitarian Universalism
