As a psychotherapist, my role is to help facilitate and support you, the client, in discovering, processing, and most importantly, deciding if changing some strategies you have needed to implement in negotiating your life is a next step in your treatment. It can take time to identify influencing factors in the problems experienced in life. Through the development of a safe and trusting therapeutic relationship, we will identify issues, if not already clear to you, and take action in the therapeutic relationship itself to develop the relational, emotional, and or behavioral skills you determine need to be the focus of your treatment.

Hi, I'm Michele. I'm glad you're here. I know how a situation, involving yourself or a loved one, can consume your life. I became a therapist because I've experienced similar circumstances. Those moments have led me to be an empathetic and effective counselor. We will take things at your pace. This is your time, and we will work together to find healing and growth.

At Collaborative Change we work with adults, children, adolescents and families who face a variety of issues that prevent them from functioning at their best. Our goal is not to "fix" the people that we work with but rather to provide safe and innovative ways for people to collaborate with a therapist to create positive change for themselves. Our therapists are trained in a variety of approaches and techniques to help people reach their goals in their own unique way.

I have been in the psychology field for over two decades. Therapy is a process of sharing concerns, problems, ideas, questions and decisions. I will listen, share, question, challenge, confront and support you in coming to grips with the things that are troubling you. I am committed to providing the most effective and personalized therapy possible.I have experience treating clients in a variety of settings and socioeconomic circumstances across the state on Indiana. I enjoy working with clients of all ages and backgrounds.

As your therapist, we will process anxiety, depression, past traumas, reroute negative behaviors, & learn how lived experiences impact the way you view the world currently. My clients often seek therapy because they are wanting to uncover the meanings behind their emotions; together, we are often able to uncover the meaning behind these emotions by better understanding past traumas encountered. Only then, can we replace negative behaviors that have stemmed from these traumas, together. I provide a safe & genuine space for LGBTQ clients & practice from an inclusive & client-centered perspective.

Change your thoughts and you change your world. This statement could not be a more perfect example of how I view this thing called life. I believe that my role is to help guide you in becoming more aware of any barriers that may be in the way of allowing for change and growth. I come from a holistic frame of mind and believe that one can regain balance of mind, body, and soul with just being open to the idea and process of change. In addition to traditional therapy, I also offer Equine Facilitated Learning sessions and Equine Assisted Psychotherapy sessions through Strides to Success as a way to support a more holistic healing.

I have been in the fields of mental health and substance abuse for over 20 years. I enjoy working with all populations. In trying to navigate through substance abuse and mental health issues, there are many factors that envelope a person's ability to cope with life. I understand that asking for help can be difficult and identifying a need for change can induce some fears. I can help you identify any changes that are needed and offer encouragement and support through your journey of self preservation.

My hope is that through my direct style of therapy, I can help you find your way to a more fulfilling and authentic life. I believe that my clients are most successful when we can establish an open and honest therapeutic relationship. I want to work alongside you and possibly your spouse, children or family to pursue a healthier approach to life.
