Welcome!
Life’s transitions can be challenging. Sometimes we choose change to create a more fulfilling and balanced life, and other times change arrives unexpectedly, bringing pain and uncertainty. Whatever the circumstance, you don’t have to face it alone—I’m here to help you navigate the journey with support and care.
Midlife
Navigating mid-life can feel like walking a tightrope — juggling career demands, parenting, and the growing responsibilities of caring for aging parents. You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or even invisible in the midst of everyone else’s needs. If this resonates, you’re not alone — and support is available.
Caregiving
As an older adult/senior you face your own unique challenges — including isolation, health concerns, changes in thinking and memory, grief and loss, the transitions that come in late-life, and questions of meaning and identity. This stage of life can bring both wisdom and vulnerability, and I provide a respectful, supportive space where you can feel heard, valued, and empowered.
Older Adults/Seniors
My approach is warm, patient, and grounded in a deep understanding of adult development and aging. Whether you're managing caregiving stress, dealing with family conflict, entering retirement, or navigating a loss, feeling the emotional weight of big life decisions, or struggling with the need to have more care, I’m here to support your mental and emotional well-being.
Therapy can help with complex issues related to midlife and later life transitions, including grief, identity shifts, and chronic stress.
- Minimize anxiety, worry, “overthinking”, and ruminating thoughts.
- Shift away from feeling lost or stuck in life.
- Improve communication and relationships.
- Manage life stressors, including changes in relationships, career and home life.
- Navigate concerns about memory, health, caregiving or downsizing.
- Reduce isolation, feelings of loneliness, sadness, loss and grief.
Hello. I'm Michelle.
With more than 25 years of experience in healthcare - primarily in skilled nursing facilities and hospitals - I’ve had the privilege of supporting individuals and families through the complex challenges that accompany changes in health, roles, and independence.
I began my career as an Occupational Therapist, which gave me a deep understanding of how medical and mental health concerns influence daily functioning, identity, and quality of life. That foundation continues to shape my approach to therapy—one that integrates both emotional and practical support to foster meaningful change.
As a National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC), I also help clients strengthen the connection between mind and body, cultivating greater balance, resilience, and overall well-being.
Individualized Approach
My work draws from several approaches, including Health and Wellbeing Coaching, Attachment-Based Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction ( MBSR), Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Strength-Based approaches. Together, we’ll find what fits best for you—so you can move forward with renewed purpose and peace of mind.
