Hi folks- my name is Michelle Main. I have worked in the human service field for over 20 years with the last several as a CMHC. I have 10 years experience with DCFS which gave me a strong background in working with children and trauma. I have several years experience with addiction and relapse prevention as well as domestic violence, grief, depression and anxiety. I use a integrative approach to counseling. I enjoy working with adults, children, adolescents couples and individuals. I am a strong believer in having hope as a strong base for any therapeutic relationship.
I specialize with trauma and have an TF- CBT endorsement. I have worked extensively with children and families in crisis situations. I run an alcohol and drug relapse prevention programs with private and court ordered folks.
Thankfully I have a wide experience base with culturally diverse populations and bring that experience to my practice. I ran a Domestic Violence shelter for many years and can do DV assessments for private/court ordered services as well as drug and alcohol assessments for both private/court ordered folks.
