Unhelpful thoughts, unwise choices, honest mistakes, unforeseen change, traumatic pasts… Life will include very difficult circumstances. You may question your ability to change, lack clarity about which direction to go, and doubt whether you deserve something better. Men and women, individuals and couples, have worked with me to: 1) change their understanding of who they are, 2) achieve freedom from unhealthy sexual desires and behaviors, 3) develop a plan to build the life they want, 4) gain clarity about what they want, and 5) repair or reinvigorate their marriage.

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.

I have worked as a Hospice Social Worker, an outpatient therapist for Pine Rest, and as a therapist treating adults with major mental health disorders with two Community Mental Health organizations. I have experience treating a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, sleep issues, compulsive behaviors, bipolar disorder, relationship and marital issues, grief and loss, domestic violence, stress, post-traumatic stress, trauma, anger management, and women's issues.

Integrative, connected, holistic, and person-centered are just some of the words that I would use to describe my therapeutic approach with my clients. ‍I believe that your body, mind, and spirit are all connected and play a crucial role in your healing journey, and understanding this connection can encourage you to thrive and heal on a deeper level. ‍

Carol Rodgers once said If we are able to accept ourselves just as we are, then we can change. Likewise, I believe that everyone has the unique ability to discover significance within themself. This path to personal development is often found within the context of meaningful relationships. A therapeutic relationship can offer helpful guidance towards radical acceptance, profound healing and transformational growth.

Are you stressed out about your life? Does your partner seem distant, angry and cold? Do you worry about your children and teenagers who seem out of control? Are you at your wits end and beginning to feel hopeless about this? Do you struggle with guilt and feel stuck in bad habits,even addictions?

I have a heart for helping people and walking alongside them in their journey of healing. Life can bring unexpected pain and suffering. Often times you can feel lost and confused with no one to turn to. Counseling is a beautiful way to seek help from someone who will guide you through the littlest to most difficult times in your life. Everyone can benefit from talking to someone who is not a family member or friend. Someone who will truly hear your needs and unconditionally support you. I am here for you! Please Call Today!

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.

We love working with clients with a variety of issues. We find it engaging and rewarding to help people find happiness and contentment. Our ideal client is one who is motivated for personal change and healthier relationships with others. We believe happiness is based in developing a kind characters and connecting with others. In order to develop kinder characters and healthier attachments, one must be willing to question their own actions, thoughts and beliefs. This process can be intimidating; yet is made easier with the kind support of a caring therapist.

I've been in practice 25 yrs - with individuals/couples & families -- kids 6+, many teens, college students & adults. I'm shamelessly informal -- no ties or pressed shirts here!. The office is quite unique - - very large, ultra comfy, w/MANY natural oddities... slightly chaotic -- like life! Good strong coffee/tea/soda & munchies always available. Pets welcome. I'm adopted myself, a licensed foster parent, & work with trauma and attachment. I have a multi-cultural family & lived abroad (Africa). I do co-parenting therapy & am also very familiar w/court systems, working with Dr.'s, lawyers, schools and custody issues.

I believe in a Client-centered, Cognitive-Behavioral approach with an emphasis on personal responsibility, accountability, and ownership of problem solving to bring about personal change. I specifically use the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) model. The goal of ACT is acceptance of what is out of personal control, and a commitment to action for life improvement and enrichment. Additionally, mindfulness training including meditation, relaxation, and guided imagery can be used for therapeutic intervention.

For over 20 years I have been involved in the mental health system and have had the privilege of helping individuals & families achieve their goals and overcome a variety of challenges (i.e. depression, anxiety, mood disorders, new transitions, relational, & substance abuse struggles). While speaking both English & Spanish languages, my hope is that each individual that I encounter will gain a better understanding of themselves, and also learn valuable skills to move forward towards a more fulfilling and flourishing life---to be able to find 'Peace of Mind'--within themselves and within their surroundings.

I have been working with children, families and organizations for over three decades in various forms.

In working as a therapist, I have experience working in schools, churches, foster care, CPS, FOC, family relationships, child behavior, parenting, conflict resolution, and leadership counseling. I have worked with children, parents, grandparents, pastors, principals, and others seeking to move in a different direction, or better manage their current situation.
