Michelle prioritizes creating a warm and non-judgmental environment for clients. She knows that the trust and relationship built between client and provider is one of the most significant factors in helping a client reach their goals. Over time she will continue to explore a client's past and present and seek to foster self-reflection in her clients to create lasting change. Michelle uses a relational approach and looks to meet the client where they are in their journey. She will gently probe to gain a greater insight into the client's issues and goals. She actively listens and reflects a client's words back to them to help them see patterns and gain more self-awareness.
