Hi, I'm Michele!

Many people I see move from:
* anxious and/or worried to calm and reassured
* feeling less than to feeling enough and worthy
* insecure to confident

I provide compassionate, evidence-based therapy for high-functioning adults navigating anxiety, trauma, performance improvement and life’s challenges. I specialize in EMDR, Brainspotting, and integrative approaches that address the root of your struggles, helping you move toward lasting change.

Seeking therapy can be a big step, so I'm here to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and empowered. Whether you’re looking for practical coping strategies or deeper healing, I tailor my approach to meet your unique needs.

I have 25 years of clinical experience gained from private practice, Johns Hopkins Hospital/University & Gettysburg College. To learn more, I offer a free 15 minute consultation. Please feel free to send me an email with questions. I'd love to hear from you.
