My approach blends techniques from CBT Solution-focused, DBT, Directive, and Client-Centered, and Attachment
therapy approaches to best meet the needs of my clients. Active listening, validation, and
collaboration coupled with accountability to achieve the goals you have for your journey is vital.
Together we will uncover the underlying factors to the difficulties that brought you to therapy and
work to develop the skills needed to help you feel like you can navigate life’s challenges with
confidence.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t

Her time in her career has afforded her opportunities to serve the elderly community at Christwood
Retirement Community, the teenage population at Northlake Behavioral on the adolescent inpatient

of her time at Seaside Behavioral, Michelle began working in private practice with children as young
