Female Therapists in Fort Myers, FL

You’re allowed to take a break, relax & be “unproductive.” You are allowed to slow down, so that you CAN be your most productive and best self. Saying “no” can sometimes feel selfish. Truth is … it is anything but! Saying no allows you to take care of you, so you can care for those you love the most! Are you ready to tap into your soul and gather the inner wisdom stored inside so that you can live your life with confidence and clarity? Are you ready to honor your needs so that you feel energized and excited to start your day? I help women rise up & step into their true genius so that they can live a joyful, rich and meaningful life.

Hi, I’m Michelle and I am glad you are here. I help conscientious women ages 22-45, who struggle with self esteem and confusion achieve clarity and confidence. Are you a young woman feeling confused and inadequate for the current life situations you face? Are you a mother and doubt your parenting? Are you a highly sensitive person and second guess yourself all the time, feeling like you are not as good as others think you are? Do you frequently compare yourself to others and feel you don’t measure up? Have you doubted your ability to skillfully navigate the relationships that matter most in your life?

The world seems like a scary place. Worrying seems like the norm to you. Enjoying the present moment or taking any decisions seems impossible. Your mood feels like rollercoaster every day or at times is just numb. Eating helps you feel better at times, but then you feel guilty about going for food or you feel you just had too much, ending in ways to compensate for this. You want to stop this cycle, live in the moment, and enjoy your life. I’m here for you, to listen with empathy, compassion, and without judgement.

Are you a woman experiencing anxiety and depression from all the different roles and responsibilities in your life? Are you a mother who is pregnant, recently delivered, or has small children you are trying to keep up with? Do you feel overwhelmed by the daily tasks involved with being a wife, mother, and friend? Are you tired of trying to be everything for everyone else and not feeling supported? Imagine a life where you feel relaxed, happy and fulfilled. A life where you can give yourself to the ones you love, without giving too much of yourself. A life where you don't feel shame or guilt when you prioritize self-care.

My goal with my clients is to encourage all to be curious about what life could be as an empowered and confidential individual. The power to reconstruct your soul comes from being shown how to be honest with yourself.

My therapeutic style is relaxed and I frquently use humor where appropriate! While processing life issues, traumas and other hurts, clients gain new healthier insights on old challenges and learn more effective problem solving for moving forward. Old stale patterns are replaced with heightened communication, effective relationship decisions and can demonstrate the making of smarter life choices etc. If you are feeling stuck, hurt or just need to process any issue, then its time to keep reading and choose to design your life to promote happiness and success.
