Ever Feel Stuck? Let me help guide you through. Hi I'm Michelle, a Registered Psychologist. I started her career in the not-for-profit sector working with clients in home and long-term care settings, particularly with children and teens with behavioral disorders. During this time I gained extensive experience supporting parents and working with clients experiencing oppositional defiant disorder and conduct disorder. I also began working in private practice in 2019 where I worked with a diverse range of clients and their concerns. For more information or to book an appointment visit www.throughthewoods.ca.
Using a strength-based approach, I aim to guide clients through life’s challenges. I welcome clients from all backgrounds and am a LGBTQ+ ally. I value a collaborative therapeutic relationship where you, the client, are involved in goal-setting and treatment planning in order to best fit your unique needs and strengths.
I am passionate about supporting the growth and healing of my clients and offers skillful and practical strategies aimed at cultivating real change. I believe strongly in working collaboratively with support systems to promote overall positive well-being.
