More about Michelle
- 12 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
With many years of experience as a licensed therapist, I have dedicated my career to helping children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigate life's challenges and build healthier, more fulfilling relationships. I provide a compassionate, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes.
My clinical experience includes working with individuals experiencing depression, anxiety, stress, family conflict, relationship challenges, life transitions, and emotional difficulties. I have extensive knowledge and experience in helping clients develop effective coping strategies, improve communication, strengthen relationships, and build resilience.
I believe that every individual and family has unique strengths, and I tailor treatment to meet each client's specific needs and goals. Whether working with a child struggling with emotional or behavioral concerns, a couple seeking to improve their relationship, or a family working through conflict, I use evidence-based therapeutic approaches to foster growth, healing, and lasting positive change.
My goal is to create a safe, collaborative therapeutic relationship where clients feel supported as they gain insight, develop practical skills, and move toward greater emotional well-being and healthier relationships.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
