About Michelle
​
​"Hello, my name is Michelle and for over 30 years, I have had the privilege of supporting children, youth and families in school and community settings. Through education and lived experience, I have learned that change begins when we feel seen, safe and understood - principles that guide my counselling practice. I offer a safe therapeutic space where I believe that healing begins when the nervous system feels safe enough to soften.
My approach is warm, relational, and grounded in attachment-based, trauma‑informed care. I view therapy as a collaborative partnership where your pace and sense of safety guide our work. Together, we explore underlying patterns, repair emotional wounds, and strengthen the inner resources you already carry- supporting meaningful, sustainable growth and long‑term well‑being.
I will guide each session rooted in attachment-based principles and trauma-informed care, helping you repair emotional wounds and foster growth. Counselling is informed by EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), and expression through play and stories. I am here to walk with you one step at a time."
