Michelle Valenciano Hemm LPC-S I believe that people have the ability to heal and are doing the best they can. I help clients clarify their goals and find the inner strength to face their issues. My particular strength lies in working with individuals who are dealing with trauma, substance abuse and mood disorders. My preference is to work with individuals ages 15 +. My strengths are working with women and girls but am not opposed to working with males who I find are a good fit with my approach.

People generally come to therapy because there is some area of their life in which they are stuck and in pain. I practice from an “attachment” perspective which is the key to unlocking a different way of understanding yourself and your interactions with others, opening a pathway to practical and relational healing. My office is a no-blame/no-shame environment. I provide both traditional talk therapy as well as Equine Assisted Psychotherapy (EAP) to individuals (age 8 and up), couples, and families just 20 miles SE of Dallas. Because of my experience as an adoptive dad, foster and adoptive families are a focus of my practice.
