Hi there, I'm Michelle!

I have over 25 years of experience welcoming individuals and couples who are seeking to create change in their lives. As a grateful believer, I use my faith, coupled with different therapeutic approaches, primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Informed Therapy, to help clients find freedom, healing, and wholeness in their lives.

My focus

My clients bring emotional pain: anxiety and depression taking a daily toll, relationships feeling unbalanced and disconnected, or stress and self-criticism impacting performance at home, school, or work.

My approach

My primary approach is rooted in Faith-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, an evidence-based approach that focuses on helping clients understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected so that they can begin to make targeted change.
