I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, Registered Play Therapist, Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy trained, Reiki certified, and Animal Assisted Play Therapist, Level l, who has been working with children and families for 20+ years. As a Registered Play Therapist, I help children express themselves through play. Children (13 and under) typically do not have the cognitive skills to verbally express themselves. Play therapy gives them the tools to understand and process their world. I have experience with LGBTQ+ clients and working with members of this community is another passion of mine.

I know what it's like being scared to seek help. I know that asking for help can sometimes feel like things are failing and I caused them. I also know how nervous I felt when I looked for assistance and wanting to begin therapy, scared with questions like, will I be judged? Will they keep my confidence? Can I trust them? I knew that when seeking therapy and looking for help all I wanted was for things to be better, get better, live healthier and be accepted. Therapy is scary, it can bring up issues that may be more frightening than you would like to cope with. Therapy is also helpful, healthy and the best part is, you're not alone.

With over 30 years of clinical experience, I offer practical steps and guidance that promote awareness and forward movement with the challenges brought to therapy. Are you going through a difficult time overwhelmed with emotion, or working hard and aiming to please but find you are worn out and satisfying no one, including yourself? You may be feeling stuck in an unhealthy relationship or behavior pattern. You may be struggling with that "inner critic" that succeeds in throwing you off your game. I strive to provide a safe environment where relief and desired change can replace pain, distress, and frustration.

I’m an LPC, and I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify and challenge unhelpful thoughts/beliefs and increase helpful behaviors. This process also decreases stressful emotions.

I often utilize DBT to focus on increasing mindfulness utilizing meditation and breathing exercises.

"How can therapy help me? What can you tell me that I don’t already know?”- these are ideas that are fairly common for many people considering therapy. After all, society tells us that “emotions are yucky” and can be difficult to face- so what can therapy do for you that will actually benefit you? I believe that therapy is not about the therapist “telling you” about yourself, but is instead to explore what is holding you back from reaching your full potential.

God Healer of Hearts Counseling Center, P. C. strongly believes that people are imperfect. They are beautiful and spectacular but can also become stuck, unhappy, and unable to live a fulfilling life. That’s where we come in. As a corporation that was built due to Michelle's need to offer affordable counseling to those in the community, our open doors became your home away from home. During the pandemic, our company was available 20 hours a day to offer assistance to those who were so in need. We offer in the office and online sessions. We never closed our doors. The pandemic caused a lot of anxiety and depression around the world.

Have you looked in the mirror and asked yourself, "How did I get here?" “Who can I trust?” “How did my life change so quickly that I can't even recognize myself anymore?" "Am I Crazy?" "I Want to be Happy?" Problems are just the tip of the iceberg. Real problems start and end with the mirror image we see daily. Often the mirror image is silent but dying to speak and live life again. Issues in life start with the inability to be heard, believed in, and understood. I believe the best way to find you again, is to find your voice.

Life is too short to live in pain, fear or without joy. I love to help clients resolve issues, improve relationships and find the joy in their life.
