I am a mental health clinician who practices in both Maryland and Michigan. Treatment will vary just as our individual personalities vary. I am looking for clients who are unsure of what they want or need but are willing to explore. I am looking for clients who have goals but need help starting the journey. I am also looking for clients who know what they want, they have begun the work, but need more support. No matter the stage or phase of treatment, I am looking for clients willing to do the work.

Our group is trained in dealing with a variety of issues including: Attention Deficit Disorder, School Difficulties, Interpersonal Issues such as bullying, adult ADD and related issues, Depression, Anxiety, Trauma, Mood Disorders, Grief and Loss, Parenting, Educational Concerns, Relationship Concerns, Career and Work Issues, and Sexual Issues.

Hi. I'm Michelle Sheridan. I have over 25 yrs. of experience helping couples and individuals through difficult times, transitions & situations in life. I'd like to help you, if you feel it's "Time For A Change"! I help people to deal with anger, resentment, frustration, depression and overall unhappiness. There's no time like the present to look at what choices you've made in the past & how your past may be affecting today & your future. Learning to communicate in a productive way, finding your voice. I can help you succeed in identifying problem areas, understanding them, understanding yourself and others.

The vulnerability required of therapy can be overwhelming. As someone who has personally experienced not only the benefits of therapy, but the support & compassion of a therapist, I can safely say working with someone who sees you as an individual can truly do wonders. When clients seek my therapeutic services, I don’t view them as having “problems.” I recognize them as individuals, stuck in patterns of behaviors no longer helpful. As an upbeat & energetic person, I provide a safe, open, & validating environment to facilitate change.

My passion is helping others find ways to manage their challenges in this ever-changing journey we call life. For over 27 years I have worked with adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families in a variety of settings; including home, school, office, and in the community. I pride myself in building therapeutic relationships with each individual I work with. By achieving this, I believe we can then work together to help identify what is challenging you currently to get you to the life you choose to live successfully.

I work with individuals, teens and couples dealing with issues including ineffective communication, spiritual struggles, depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, high stress, perfectionism, divorce, fertility issues and more. If you are struggling with worrying too much, feeling down all the time, connecting with your young adult, unsure how to co-parent, need help with saving your relationship, or are just looking to make changes in your life, I can help. I create a safe and welcoming environment that starts with understanding and works toward change.

Being a transparent person and working in the field of addiction has helped me relate and understand others in their recovery journeys. My purpose today is to help others figure out their ways that they want to live a healthier better life and how they can do that with talk therapy. The ideal client would be someone that is open and willing to make changes in their lives and to grow by self reflecting on where they want to go in their future.

* I am only counseling via telehealth currently and not able to offer evaluations to test for ADHD. I have a doctorate in clinical psychology and a master's in social work. I attained my degrees from the UC Berkeley, Fordham University, and Saybrook University. I have experience providing treatment to individuals, couples, and families. My areas of interest include: mood and anxiety disorders, behavior management, divorce, adjustment, and relationship issues. I strive to provide exceptional services by adopting a practical approach, utilizing cognitive behavioral and other therapeutic methods to meet the unique needs of each client.

I provide the following services to those whom need, individual, couple, family and group therapy for the following mental health issues, Depression, PTSD, Anxiety disorders, grief and loss and case management with your psychiatrist, if you take medication and need it to be manage for example. I also, provide treatment for those whom are suffering from alcoholism and drugs.

My personal theoretical foundation is not limited to one approach. I believe it is necessary for counselors to be adaptive. Every client is different and our responses and approaches should be equally diverse. One person may need a cognitive behavioral approach whereas another would be more responsive to brief counseling. This eclectic approach will be applied to all clients. Techniques will vary between clients to best meet the individual client's needs.

Overall, I consider myself a "worldly nurturer". "Worldly", because I have worked with people from all backgrounds, cultures, ages, and walks of life to "nurture" their potential. All of my experiences have taught me the foundational skills that I use in my profession today, which are: patience, the ability to listen, the understanding that listening is as paramount as speaking, the capabilities to be resourceful, valuing modesty and humility whilst still being confident and capable, and having faith in my skill-set while still being open to professionally growing and developing.
