“Michelle has been fantastic throughout my journey to become healthy with my mental health, marriage and family life. She always offers great ideas and recommendations to implement with my daughter and wife, along with me.<br /> Michelle actively listens and shows interest in my wellbeing. I've grown over the past 2 years in my journey and have become a better person, due to the hard work and recommendations being offered.”

“Michelle really helped me to challenge a lot of my negative thinking and see a new perspective.<br /> She also helped me with a lot of very difficult trauma, and how to overcome that by looking within.<br /> She is very friendly, understanding, and supportive.<br /> She tells you information that would otherwise be difficult to hear in a compassionate, and easy to absorb way.<br /> <br /> She has really helped me to get back on my feet from a dark, difficult place. With skills to help me in my daily life, especially with anxiety.<br /> <br /> I would highly recommend Michelle to others, she does an amazing job and I really appreciate all the time she has put in for me.<br /> 5/5 stars!”

“Michelle has helped me through some extreme challenges. I have been using my “tools” to help me get through situations I could’ve never navigated before.”

“Of the therapists I have had on betterhelp, Michelle is the best. She is always warm and respectful but also challenges me. She pays attention, she brings up past discussions and behaviors to help me aknowlege my patterns, tries different avenues to help me reflect on those. I feel She genuinely cares and wants me to succeed.”

“I have seen Michelle for therapy for over a year now, she gives great advice and guidance on things that I am struggling with and experiencing in life. She makes me feel very comfortable to share and look at things from many different angles and she has really helped me grow.”

“I have not had many therapists in my life but I felt like she was not only my therapist but also my friend. She loving directed towards a place of healing and I will always be grateful for her our time spent together . I truly felt that Michelle cared for me”

“Michelle is a compassionate person who listens well and follows up with great questions/recommendations based on what was discussed.”

“It is like talking to a friend with great advice. She is quick to understand the dilemma and has tools available to teach that next step. She is also a great listener and has helped me really analyze the real issue.”

“Michelle was very kind and understanding. I appreciate what she did, it was just a few factors, and it is not working for me at this time”

“Michelle is a great person to listen to your concerns and asks the right questions”

“Every week during my session, Michelle bring new encouraging ideas to bring forward to work my mental health and my relationship with my spouse.<br /> <br /> It’s been very encouraging to get healthy and knowing that she has my back.”

“I have worked with a couple of different counselors and can safely say that Michelle is top shelf and an expert at her craft. Excellent notes and recall, very personable and aware of when to dig deeper on an issue and celebrate the wins. Highly recommend.”

“Working with Michelle to apply what I’ve explored in therapy has been instrumental in helping me navigate the many transitions I’ve experienced this year. She has consistently helped me view challenges from new perspectives, and the strategies she’s shared have supported meaningful personal growth. As a result, I feel more confident in how I approach obstacles, responding with greater balance and composure rather than panic.”

“So grateful to have connected with Michelle last year & now reconnected today. Feels like we didn’t miss a beat & she remembered so many little details about my life from a year ago.”

“Michelle is wonderful! She listens and gives feedback and multiple potential solutions that can help you with what you are dealing with”
