About Michelle

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. I hold a masters in Clinical Psychology with a specialization in Child Studies. Before I became a therapist I worked for almost twenty years in education in San Francisico and Los Angeles. I have extensive experience working with kids and families.

I have an eclectic approach, although I lean towards existential psychotherapy. I believe that we are always changing and growing and that our response to that change and growth is in our own control. Sometimes we need a little help figuring out the meaning of that change and growth. That’s where our work together begins.

Therapy is sometimes hard. Sometimes it hurts to explore what’s in our hearts. It can be scary. It can be messy. It can be very exciting, as well. Therapy can be an amazing adventure and I recognize and appreciate the courage it takes to begin. Be proud of the fact that you’ve already taken the first step.
