Introduction

"Heal the root so the tree is stable." I am a licensed therapist, certified life coach, and certified energy healer. My mission is to help you build resilience, as well as gain hope in your journey and self-empowerment. Whether you're ready to dive deep or need someone to hold a compassionate space, I am here to walk alongside you on this path. All services are conducted via telehealth. ❃ MENTAL HEALTH THERAPY: I will walk alongside you on your journey, offering a compassionate, nonjudgmental space for reflection, healing, and growth. My approach to therapy is holistic; Blending mindfulness-based techniques and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with a relational, personalized style that feels more like two humans holding space for authentic conversation than a clinical session. Together, we will integrate tools to support self-discovery and personal growth. YOU matter and your story matters; And if it is rooted in core wounds, we’ll work together to rewrite it into a narrative of resilience and empowerment. 50 minutes | Covered by Insurance ❃ MINDSET COACHING: If you’re seeking guidance and motivation to reach your goals, I am here to support you as both a guide and cheerleader. Together, we will create a personalized plan that inspires and keeps you accountable, focusing on mindset, relationships, self-advocacy, and/or health habits. 50 minutes | Not Covered by Insurance ❃ ALTERNATIVE HEALING: If you’ve tried other methods but still feel weighed down by anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or limiting beliefs, alternative healing offers a gentle path to relief. It's an alchemical process. Together we’ll work to clear energetic blockages and restore balance so you can feel more at ease. I draw from somatic healing, chakra balancing, aura cleansing, Emotion Freedom Technique (EFT), Quantum Touch, Emotion Code, and Body Code, tailored to your unique journey. This holistic approach supports emotional and physical well-being and can complement, though not replace, traditional therapy. Full session: 50 minutes | Mini session: 30 minutes | Not Covered by Insurance ❃ YOUR PROVIDER: Since 2012 I’ve served in nonprofit behavioral health organizations, group private practice, social services, and schools; supporting diverse communities including BIPOC individuals and those with long-term disabilities. I blend professional training with intuitive, spiritually informed insight to create a holistic, personalized approach to healing. My path to this work began during a season of deep challenge, when extended bed rest taught me both the weight of powerlessness and the strength of reclaiming my own power. That transformation, alongside my spiritual journey, inspires me to help others embrace their authenticity and inner resilience. I'm looking for this next step together! Yours Truly, Michelle
