Hi! I'm Michelle – a 40-something cisgender heterosexual woman with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field. I co-own a small private practice with my husband (also a therapist), and while we don’t have human kids, we do have multiple dogs who I am over the top with as a proud "dog mom." While this isn't something typically discussed in therapy, I’m liberal-leaning in my values and have a personal faith, though I wouldn’t describe myself as traditionally religious. A Few Things to Know: Therapy Fit Matters: If I’m not the right fit for you, that’s okay! Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all.

About Me: I was born with Spina Bifida and use a wheelchair full-time. This perspective deepens my empathy and reminds me that no two experiences are the same—even when the issues look similar on the surface. My Style: I’m laid back and authentic while remaining professional. I don’t typically assign homework or suggest reading, though I might occasionally if it feels helpful. Who I’m Not a Fit For: I’m not trained to work with active addiction or severe trauma/PTSD-related symptoms. My Focus Areas: Grief of all kinds (people, pets, jobs, life stages, etc.) Depression Life transitions (divorce, career shifts, big changes) Feel free to reach out with any questions. I’m here if you think we’d be a good match. .
