Michelle works with complex trauma using EMDR, Structural Dissociation theory and SE. Michelle is a Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT) and financial/work disorders (CMAT). Michelle worked for 4.5 years as a therapist at The Meadows, a world-renown inpatient treatment facility and trained under Pia Mellody. Michelle works in private practice, assisting clients in addressing their childhood trauma, process/substance addictions, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, rage/anger and PTSD. Michelle works with the veteran community and is a veteran herself.
New client openings, in person and virtual. The techniques Michelle uses to treat process and substance addictions are derived from cutting edge therapy models and evidenced-based integrative models that include EMDR, Task Model-Sex Addiction, Pia Mellody's PIT Model for Codependency and trauma resolution, Solution-Focused Therapy and Family Systems Therapy.
Michelle has worked with clients who find rage, sex, substances and other troublesome coping techniques interfering with their work, families and ability to find peace in life. I have a fairly straight forward style that has a knack for guiding clients to untangle the issues that keep them stuck in their lives.
