Hello and welcome. My name is Michaelle Desruisseaux and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Florida. Are you emotionally tired and just feel stuck? Life can get overwhelming so I commend you on taking this courageous step towards feeling better. My goal as your therapist is to join forces with you to develop new strategies and skills to help you cope with life stressors. I have over 15 years experience working with teens, adults and elderly. I am passionate about working with people who struggle with Depression, Anxiety, Anger Management, Low Self Esteem/Self Image, and Grief.

Providing my clients with a comfortable, open, non-judgmental environment is key to developing a trusting relationship. I have found it to be so important for my clients to recognize and build upon their own strengths. In our work together we can establish definable goals for treatment and uncover various patterns that developed over time. After obtaining a Master's Degree from Columbia University, I had the opportunity to work in both inpatient, outpatient, and private practice settings.

I provide teletherapy support and skills development to clients that are experiencing relationship issues, LGBTQIA issues, and life transitions (i.e. divorce, grief, career transitions).

Is it hard just to function and get through the day? Ready for a change?

I am also certified in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and a Prepare and Enrich Facilitator as well as trained in traditional therapeutic modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Multimodal Therapy and Mindful Practices

Sometimes it helps just to talk to someone. Someone who can listen with empathy and without judgment. Someone who can see patterns you may not have been aware of, who can help you talk back to that negative voice in your head, and who can help you renew your hopes for yourself and the future. Someone like me. To all of you I say, Come, let's talk about it, and together we'll find a way through this messy business of life. You are not alone.

I'm so happy you find yourself here in this moment. It takes a lot to act on that little whisper inside saying maybe it's time to talk to someone about whatever it is going on in life. I want to applaud you for taking that step and I'm hoping I can be part of your next chapter. I do enjoy connecting with my clients through empathy and sometimes shared laughter as I feel many of life's toughest times can be made the tiniest bit easier with a a sense of humor. My ideal client is someone who feels things are able to change and they are ready to take that step. I am also passionate about working with caregivers.

I would love to talk with you about how we can work together! I aim to create a very relaxed and comfortable environment to help you find both the barriers and solutions to the challenges you are experiencing. I work with all ages, however my passion is working with younger children. For adults I am to enhance their relationship with themselves and develop problem solving skills. For children, I support and assist the child to finding their own solutions through both talk and play therapies, resulting in children enhancing their problem solving skills and the relationship between themselves and their parent.

Has your life as you've known it been shattered, leaving you feeling lonely, broken and at a loss of how to put the pieces back together? Maybe you're consumed with feelings of depression, anxiety, and self doubt, just struggling to keep up with the daily grind. Perhaps you have unresolved trauma that is interfering with your ability to enjoy life in the present. Regardless of what has brought you to this point, you are exhausted from trying to manage it on your own.
