Wendy Micheau

Welcome! Most clients who seek me out are overwhelmed. They may be dealing with life transitions like separation, divorce, single parenting, empty nesting, or career changes. They may feel alone and need help moving forward. Sometimes they are doing their best to juggle life's stresses while managing chronic illness or disability - whether that's their own autoimmune condition, their child's autism or ADHD, a partner's sudden stroke, or an aging parent's Alzheimer's. Above all, they want a personal connection with someone who believes in them and validates their feelings, experiences, and concerns.

As a counselor, I offer undivided attention & nonjudgement. I listen with compassion, using curiosity & thoughtful questions to examine your concerns. Together we may use creative activities (writing, drawing, projection) to approach problems in new ways. I’ll also challenge you to take small action steps to help you meet the goals you've set for yourself.

In our work together I will honor your wholeness and recognize your inherent strengths. This means that—while I will attend to the challenges you describe in session—I will also recognize your knowledge, skills, attitudes, wisdom, capabilities, community, and resiliency. You are so much more than your hardship!
