"Never too old, never too bad, never too late, never too sick to start from scratch once again". What I look for in any client is the willingness to participate in their sessions. If you are looking for ways to stop the negative self talk, finally deal with issues from the past, are experiencing increased symptoms due to PTSD or anxiety, fear and irrational thinking or you are exploring Bariatric surgery or dealing with grief, we will work together to mend the darkness of the past and calm uncertainties of the future so that you can focus and live positively today.

How do you feel right now? What do you need? What do you want? Change in our lives can only come from a better understanding of who we really are. Validation of past experiences, wounds and traumas. Through exploration, comes a willingness to work to change. Not who you are, but how you are; in relationships, at work, with your family and with yourself. Reducing anxiety, feeling less depressed, better able to deal with overwhelming emotions. Contentment.

I work in a Jungian way, recognizing that we are spiritual beings on a human journey. When problems arise in our lives, we have an opportunity to more fully understand who we are and what life is asking of us. Learning the tools with which to continue on the path in a more fulfilling way is the goal of the work I will do with you: to discover new possibilities within your own reservoir of coping and problem solving skills.

When things are difficult, it can isolate us, drain our emotional reserves, and limit our ability to look at things in new ways. I work to help clients appreciate the depth of their experience, and support them toward personal strength and healthier relationships. My style is open, collaborative, direct, and supportive. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years in private practice. I also served as adjunct faculty at the University of Rochester's Counseling Center for many years.

Here you are, searching amongst professional strangers to choose someone to dig into your “stuff” with. What a weird world. Welcome. I’m Michelle. - My professional journey has included being with adults/kids/families struggling with life shaking trauma’s as well as those working through the struggles with anxiety/depression/daily life striving for general wellness. My own role models had ways of “being” that allowed people around them to slow down and deepen. Take a break from the chaos. Wherever you are, I’m here and look forward to working together in whichever way you need at this point in time.

Sometimes our problems and pain are too much for us to manage on our own. I can help people understand their relationships with others and manage the challenges in their lives. My clients find me easy to talk to: I believe I know when to be quiet and when people need my help to talk about their suffering and struggles. Together my clients and I identify the troublesome patterns in their relationships - professional and personal - and figure out how to change those patterns. Sometimes I am there just to be with people as they acknowledge and bear what cannot be changed.

There are times when life seems overwhelming or painful. Everything is confusing and frustrating and it feels like you’ll never be at peace. Anxiety, depression, anger and self-doubt give way to issues in relationships, inability to fulfill responsibilities at work or home, and turning to unhealthy coping behaviors. Since you’re reading this, you want out of this endless cycle and to live differently. Maybe you want to be able to build healthier relationships with those around you. Do you want to be a different partner, parent or friend? Or perhaps the relationship you most want to nurture and explore is with yourself.

At some point in most of our lives we go through challenging times in which we may feel lost, scared, lonely, anxious, or defeated.
