The journey towards therapy can feel overwhelming. You may find yourself feeling alone, scared, misunderstood, or completely stuck. Having someone by your side to explore the parts of yourself that prevent you from living the life you desire can make a world of difference. I offer a compassionate and supportive presence. It is my intention to help guide my clients towards developing a healthy and strong sense of self, and an understanding of the feelings and emotions that emerge during the counseling process. Being human involves not just the mind but also the body and soul. I am licensed in both Oregon and Washington. I use a variety of techniques to support my clients in feeling more connected to their whole selves. While our thoughts and emotions are important, equally of value are the somatic sensations experienced within the body. In addition to talk therapy, I integrate guided meditation, breath work, EMDR, music & craniosacral therapy within my practice. Whether you are facing past or present trauma, struggling with anxiety and depression, or just don't know what your next move in life is, I am here to offer a supportive, compassionate and mindful presence, sitting next to you as you navigate your way. I invite you to connect with me for a no-cost, 20-minute consultation either by phone or video call.

We are often presented with a plan for how our lives might look by our family, community, and society. What happens when your life goes off-script? Maybe you lose someone important to you, and you are left wondering how to pick up the pieces and move forward. Maybe you see your peers seeming to “check the boxes” of adulthood and feel like you’re falling behind or failing. Maybe you’ve retired and are finding it difficult to adjust to a life outside your job. Maybe you don’t fit into the straight, binary norm and you’re struggling to find what a full and healthy life looks like for you when you don't have a template. All of these situations can leave you feeling lost, and may lead to problems with anxiety and depression. How do you find meaning and hope when things aren’t the way you expected them to be? Let's look for the answer to this question. I use an affirming, client-centered approach to help you find the direction you want to take and the tools you need. I work with adults over 25, of all genders. I am currently accepting new clients for telehealth and in-person therapy. Contact me via email or phone to set up a free consultation call.

**Currently not accepting new clients** Sometimes couples feel as if they are stuck. Stuck in conflict, stuck in trust and communication issues, or stuck in stagnation. In my work with couples, I act as a neutral third party, striving to create a safe place in which we can work together to uncover these patterns of "stuck-ness" while also establishing a secure and loving bond between partners. I also enjoy working with women, tweens and up, seeking to make peace with food and body. I am honored to walk beside women through transitions and hardships, which often co-occur with food and body struggles. I work from a Health at Every Size/non-diet/Intuitive Eating approach and provide support to individuals or loved ones affected by disordered eating, body image difficulties, and diet culture. Additionally, I am passionate about helping people heal from traumatic experiences through the use of body-based methods, which create change without re-traumatizing. As a former dancer and dance instructor, I believe artistic expression can be a powerful avenue for healing and growth. I love bringing creativity into session when appropriate, such as art or writing. My dance background also means I understand the stress and pressures of being an athlete.

Are you struggling to show up in the present? Do you ever feel 'haunted' by past experiences that foreclose your way toward the future you want? I have met such roadblocks myself and believe that building a healthy interpersonal relationship in therapy paves the road to unlocking your goals & desires. I have specialties working with queer women & femmes in addressing anxiety, t/Trauma processing & recovery, sexual assault, and identity exploration. Gestalt therapy is oriented around building awareness: of ourselves, of our thoughts & behaviors, of our choices, and of our physical systems that are constantly sending us invaluable data about our experiences. I believe that for each of us to increase this awareness brings us more fully into the present, and only in the present do we have agency to change. Therapy is a dialogue. Together we can build the skills & practices you need to take authority over your life, including increased confidence & self-esteem, maintaining healthy interpersonal boundaries, and building new neural pathways that concretize the change you want to see & be.

Although I help people working through a wide range of issues and symptoms, I specialize in helping those struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship problems and life transitions. I love helping clients detach from the unnecessary barriers placed by oppressive social structures, society, family, or themselves so they can start living the life they've always wanted. It's important to me that my clients feel heard, validated, challenged, and that our therapeutic relationship is collaborative. I value providing for my clients an experience that feels tailored to their needs. My therapeutic approach is eclectic and person-centered. I utilize techniques from Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and promote mindfulness practice. I love ACT's focus on the present moment and approach on accepting the presence of unhelpful thoughts without letting them define us or control our behavior. I do my best to present as my authentic self in sessions and will utilize humor, swearing, and pop culture references as a regular part of our work together, paired of course with empathy, knowledge, and 10+ years of experience. Being true to my generation, I prefer to be contacted via email or text to set up our free consultation phone call.

Activism is a huge part of what I bring in my therapy work with clients. In trauma and healing work, I bring my direct experiences of anti-oppression, feminist, and social justice frameworks to clients. I understand that I am not excused from doing work to dismantle systems of oppression, due to the privileges from my intersectional identities as a college-educated, cisgendered, Filipina woman of color. Trauma and healing work require an alignment and connection to one’s body, mind, spiritual values and practices, and I see this as an extension of my involvement in activism, anti-oppression, and social justice work. Michelle utilizes an array of approaches with clients including and not limited to clinical case management, dance/body movement, spiritual work, with a dash of artistic creativity. Her approach draws upon her lived experience as a queer, non-monogamous, first generation Filipina American.
