Accepting new clients. For 20 years, I continue to be humbled by your unique journey. I believe that all voices are equal and that multiple perspectives can exist simultaneously in a world where differences have become a challenge for many. I provide a non-judgmental space and relaxed style and welcome you as you are. Society teaches us to be one strong person, which can minimize the vital and essential parts in us that reveal our true Self. Do you have compassion for all of your parts? How do you show up in your life? And how can I best help you move forward from where you are to where you want to be? www.michelleoglemft.com

Sometimes people find themselves repeating behavior patterns that don't help them move forward. Out of control thoughts, feelings and reactions can interfere with one’s sense of peace and wellbeing as well as relationships. If you can identify with any of these challenges, I can help you find your center and honor your life path.

I specialize in helping adults, teens, romantic partners, and families heal from hurt, trauma and shame in order to become better connected to themselves and one another. The majority of my practice focuses on healing emotional wounds, anxiety, and improving your relationships (including experiences of divorce and blended families). I work collaboratively with you to set goals for therapy that are curated to your individual preferences and needs, and I often draw from Attachment Theory, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and somatic awareness.

Are you struggling with relationship issues, trapped in the cycle of addiction, or battling an eating disorder? Or maybe you're navigating the path of cult recovery or seeking liberation from a high-control group or religion? What about grappling with work burnout, perfectionism, or the existential dread of climate change? It's also possible everything looks "fine" on the surface but inside you're experiencing anxiety, depression, and/or obsessions and compulsions. Whatever is causing your dis-ease, I'm sorry you're going through this tough time, and I'm so happy that you're here. You are not alone and your pain is valid.

Asking for help takes courage when you find yourself overwhelmed and not sure what to do. I approach my work with compassion and understanding. I strive to create an environment for you that is free of judgement. I believe that the purpose of therapy is to learn more about ourselves by expressing ourselves openly and honestly without emphasis on what is "right" or "wrong." This can help us identify deep patterns that keep us stuck and create new ways of dealing with life's challenges and being in relationships.

Emotions can be challenging! You don't need to ride a roller coaster or have emotions run your life. You really don't. Together, we can identify the causes of whatever anxiety, depression, stress, relationship or sexual issues you're facing, and work to resolve them. What our work together could look like is that we identify what Internal Family Systems and IFS Therapy refer to as the parts of your personality. Believe it or not, even when they lead to experiences that may seem negative – self-sabotaging behaviors, fear, procrastination, relationship issues – each part or aspect of you is actually trying to help get a need met.

You may be seeking therapy because you want change in your life or perhaps you are dealing with a difficult situation. You will have my full focus and I will work to understand you and to learn what you need at this time. Research shows that therapy is much more effective if client and therapist have a strong connection. To facilitate this, I offer a complimentary 30 minute consultation so we can ensure working together feels right. I offer client-focused counseling for individuals, couples, teens and elders. I seek to understand you as a whole person and in relationship.

Are you wondering how to stop feeling overwhelmed and stressed? Is perfectionism leading to burnt-out & lack of fulfillment?

If you are feeling overwhelmed or stuck in painful patterns, I am hopeful that clarity and healing are possible for you. Therapy can help you regain access to the wisdom that exists within you so you can become more resourced in navigating the challenges you are facing.

The foundation of my work with you rests in the belief that human connection based on insight and empathy is transformational. Often times suffering is a result of habitual patterns and behaviors based on fear, and difficult experiences. This drains our natural ability to enjoy life, and unfortunately cultivates a culture of isolation and aloneness. Our honest and trusting therapeutic relationship will transmute your aloneness so that you once again have access to your innate resiliency and wonder of life. It takes courage and vulnerability to reach out for support. Know I will be your ally.
