Therapy that feels like a long awaited, needed exhale. That right there, that’s my main goal for all my clients. Hi! I’m Michaela and I help people who are tired of holding it all together. Whether you’re burned out, grieving, navigating complex relationships, or simply feeling lost in your own life. You don’t have to figure it out alone.
Our work together will be a mix of grounded tools, honest conversation, and a space where your story is safe to land. This isn’t about quick fixes. It’s about untangling what’s been weighing on you and building a life that feels like yours again.
I’m warm, direct, and not easily rattled. I value honesty, humor, and real conversations. This includes embracing sarcasm, cussing, and sprinkles of laughter when it fits. I’m non-religious and committed to human rights and bodily autonomy. I won’t rush your process or push an agenda. I naturally align with parentified, black sheep, or neurodivergent folks.
Therapy with me isn’t about surface-level advice or a sugar coating of truth. It’s about creating a space where you don’t have to perform. Where your truth is welcome and your story matters. If you’re ready to slow down, exhale, and start untangling what’s been weighing on you, I’d be honored to walk with you.
