Hi there, I'm Michelle!
My general therapeutic approach is to always treat my clients with respect and honesty. I am a very open-minded person who is not there to judge but to see if we can find a plan that works for you. It's my goal to make you feel safe during sessions. I work intensively with trauma and anxiety.
My focus
I currently work intensively with youth regularly. I also work with adults who sometimes just need someone to be there, and I also teach them to learn how to become more independent in life choices. I am very comfortable with sexual abuse, physical abuse, and mental abuse. I am also comfortable with cancer and life-stage changes.
My approach
Mostly, I lean towards cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and narrative therapy. I believe that our experiences can create certain thoughts, yet we can change them. Also, I believe that it is up to us to create our own story and path. I do assign homework at times and can also challenge clients to address negative thoughts and patterns.
