More about Michelle
- 5 years' experience

- LCPC
I have been providing clinical mental health therapy for over five years. Throughout this time, I have had the opportunity of working with a wide variety of people from all ages and stages of life. I provide diagnostic assessments, treatment planning, case management and collaboration with the client, outside agencies, and other medical providers, if and when needed. Modalities I use mostly include TF-CBT, CBT, DBT, Brief Solution-Focused Therapy, and experiential therapies such as play, sand and art therapy. Through my work as a helper, I have developed specialized skills in emotion regulation, interpersonal communication, conflict resolution, behavioral management, anger management and suicide prevention and intervention. I enjoy helping others and look forward to helping you find the best possible course of action to the difficulties you face.
Prior to working as a clinical therapist, I worked as a school counselor for children in grades K-8. Through this role, I provided guidance lessons on empathy, impulse control, anger management, conflict resolution, and character education. I worked with general education students as well as those children within the RTI/MTSS, Tier 2 and 3. I also worked closely with special education staff in providing behavioral therapy and social work minutes to students with IEP's and 504 Accommodations Plans.
Outside of the therapy room, I am a wife of 25 years, a mother of four amazing young adults, and a grandma of two littles who call me "Nana." I enjoy traveling, hiking, camping, kayaking and anything outdoors. I love to go thrift shopping and am an avid adventure seeker. I enjoy singing, dancing, playing the piano, listening to all types of music, play board/card games, and spending time with family and friends.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
