More about Michelle

  • 10 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

As a licensed psychotherapist with 10 years of experience, I bring a compassionate, collaborative, and individualized approach to therapy. Throughout my career, I have supported clients through a wide range of life experiences and challenges, helping them better understand themselves, navigate difficult circumstances, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I believe therapy is most effective when clients feel heard, respected, and supported without judgment. I draw upon my clinical experience, evidence-informed approaches, and genuine connection with each client to create a safe space where you can explore your concerns, build on your strengths, and move toward greater clarity and well-being.

My goal is to meet you where you are, honor your unique experiences, and work alongside you to develop practical tools and insights that support the life you want to create. I look forward to being a part of your journey!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
