Michelle, listens and encourages. She doesn’t try to fix it but tries to encourage you to think about why you’re thinking a certain way. She helped me clear things up in my head and helped me walk through steps to simplify my day.

So far it’s been a pleasure to work with Michelle. She is kind and compassionate and reminds me to be kind to myself which is a reminder I always need. She focuses on strength based therapy which helps remind me when I feel defeated.
