Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Hi there, I'm Michelle, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both California and Utah. I have been providing therapy services for 5 years and have worked with children, adolescents, and adults. I have been trained and certified in trauma treatment, and my other areas of expertise are anxiety, depression, foster care/adoption, domestic violence, and sexual abuse. I offer both Christian-based and secular therapy. I am an eclectic therapist and pull from many different modalities including cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness, psychodynamic, acceptance and commitment, and positive psychology therapy approaches. I engage my clients through active listening and open-ended questions, encouraging reflection. I begin by working with you to build a healthy therapeutic relationship, as that is key to any effective treatment. My goal is to support and aid you in reaching your mental health goals. Your first session will be an overall assessment. I will ask you questions about your symptoms, history, health, relationships, and any other factors that may have a bearing on your mental health and what brings you to seek therapy. We will also work on building a treatment plan to guide your therapy services. Reach out today to get started.
