Many of my clients have done therapy before and want more than a therapist who can listen and validate. I offer guidance, feedback, coping tools and mindfulness practices to help clients dealing with anxiety, depression, life transitions and relationship frustrations to enhance their confidence, resilience and interpersonal effectiveness. By responding with intention (instead of reacting from fear), you will be able to navigate decisions and respond to stress, in a way reveals new opportunities. You will emerge from our work together having peace about the past, contentment in the present and optimism for the future.
As a bi-racial woman and certified coach, I offer a holistic, eclectic and multicultural approach to traditional psychotherapy. My holistic approach (includes yoga, somatic therapy, meditation and hypnosis) to help my clients live the life they wish for. This structure develops accountability, alignment and integrity with your best and healthiest self.
If you are ready to create a shift in your life experience or trajectory, I will compassionately guide and support you while also challenging and holding you accountable to your goals. I believe that therapy is a tool that anyone can benefit from without the need for labels, and in most cases, without medication. Reach out for a free consult today!

As a practitioner myself I am sensitive to working with coaches and therapists who lean heavily on "assessing" and "advising" which tends to undermine my internal wisdom. Michell did neither of those things. Instead, Michell created space for me to explore...
