Michele Merlob

My communication style

I like to create a space for clients to utilize their session time for what they are needing during their time. Also, keeping in mind their goals & reasons for entering therapy. It is important for me to develop a healthy therapeutic relationship & challenge clients in a collaborative manner.

My journey to mental healthcare

My bachelor's degree is in criminal justice because I thought I wanted to be a lawyer to assist individuals who needed a voice. I decided to pursue a master's degree in psychology to truly work on a collaborative level with clients deeply desiring change & growth.

My goals for you

I encourage clients to think about & come up with their goals. As therapy progresses, I like to assist & challenge the individual within their comfort zone to explore building on their initial goals.

Our first session

During the first session, I will talk with the potential client about what brings them to therapy while listening and answering any questions or concerns they may have. I will use this time to gather pertinent information to continue the therapeutic process.
