Michelle Shewmake

Hi there, I'm Michelle!

My passion is helping your child, tween or teen use their strengths to work through problems that are preventing them from being their best selves.

My focus

I am available for youth facing a variety of issues, including bullying, family issues (ie, sibling issues, divorce, blended families), mental health conditions (ADHD, depression, anxiety, mood dysregulation, self-harm, suicidality), trauma, grief, substance abuse/use, peer/relational issues, or academic struggles. LGBTQ+ & gender diverse ally!

My approach

My focus is to reduce unwanted symptoms in a safe setting through strategies such as improving communication skills, relationship skills, unhealthy thinking patterns, healthy behavioral habits, building distress tolerance, and developing healthy expression of feelings to improve functioning at home/school. My primary modality is based on need!
