Hi there, I'm Michal! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My approach to therapy is strength-based. I believe that each client is the expert on their life and has the innate ability to heal themselves. I am here to support and help the client re-discover their natural and inherited inner wisdom. The client is never the problem, it is the environment and the conditioned or unhealthy defense mechanism that we learned along the way. Through reflection, analysis, and hands-on application of therapy, I have helped many clients develop new coping skills, insights, and capacity to resolve life challenges.
I always tailor the therapy to each client's unique needs. I use evidence-based and empirical models that have been used and researched over time. The most common include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), EMDR, and psychodynamic theories.
I like to make the client feel as comfortable as possible. I strive to create an emotionally safe place that is devoid of judgment. Attunement is key to building rapport and letting you know that you are being seen and heard exactly as you are. It would be a pleasure and honor to collaborate with you on this journey of self-healing and positive change!
