Clients often share that they feel truly heard and supported with me, and that together we’re able to bring clarity, balance, and a deeper mind-body connection to their wellness journey.
As a Resident Counselor with Thriveworks, I specialize in helping individuals navigate the complexities of anxiety and emotional well-being. My approach to therapy focuses on helping you understand and work through the root causes of your struggles, not just the symptoms. We start by looking at real-life situations where you feel stuck or distressed, and gently explore the feelings you may be avoiding because they’re uncomfortable or anxiety-provoking. Together, we’ll also notice the habits or “defenses” you use to cope, some of which may actually be making things harder.
I’ll support you in understanding and gradually changing these patterns, so you can face difficult feelings in a safe and manageable way. As you become more comfortable experiencing your emotions, many symptoms—like anxiety or feeling stuck—can begin to ease, and you can develop healthier, more effective ways of relating to yourself and others.
I understand that seeking support can feel overwhelming, and I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard and supported. I welcome the opportunity to walk alongside you as you explore new pathways toward healing, balance, and a more fulfilling life.

Psychologist
Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC)
Stephanie: My go-to approach for helping people in individual therapy is to start where they are. I generally focus on cognitive behavioral therapy as well as mindfulness because they tend to benefit the most people because we tend to overly focus on our pain points and not what is really happening right now.
Michelle: My go-to approaches are positive psychology and ACT. I work with CBT without the true aspect of assigning homework. I prefer to work on the therapeutic alliance in the first one to three sessions in an effort to gain trust with the client and have them feel safe.
Stephanie: I teach the following tools in individual therapy:
Michelle: I definitely take a psychoeducational approach, sharing my screen to show the clients sites that might help and then sending them the links (e.g. Kristen Neff/self-compassion, Angela Duckworth/grit-resilience, the go-to relationship sites of Gottman, love languages, Esther Perel and Best Self Co.). Teaching clients about reframing negative cognitions and sharing information about cognitive distortions is important.
Stephanie: I know when a client is making meaningful progress in individual therapy when they are closer to the goal we set, feeling more positive more often, and catching their own cognitive distortions.
Michelle: When our sessions become more conversational in nature, it is apparent they are feeling better and have increased their personal toolbox of coping skills and strategies.
Stephanie: Clients can supplement their time in individual therapy by being proactive with tracking their progress toward where they want to be, as well as practicing the skills they've learned.
Michelle: By taking a psychoeducational approach, clients are able to do work in between sessions, which empowers them to make progress in their therapeutic journey.
Stephanie: To prepare for your first individual therapy session, you can think not only about what you want to change, but where you want to be once the changes happen.
Michelle: They should have a small amount of willingness to open their minds to try something different. If they are even remotely willing to try, we are pretty successful on the journey.
Individual therapy, also known as Individual therapy, allows people to engage in private sessions with a skilled therapist, counselor, or psychologist. The core objective of individual therapy is to establish a secure and confidential setting where you can openly discuss whatever emotional, psychological, or behavioral challenges you face. Through these one-on-one sessions, the client and therapist work together to delve into, comprehend, and ultimately find solutions for the issues at hand in their life.
Individual therapy unfolds in a structured process, commencing with an initial assessment in which the therapist gathers essential information about your history, concerns, and objectives. Together, you and your therapist collaboratively establish specific, attainable goals for your sessions, which can encompass symptom alleviation, personal development, or finding solutions to particular challenges.
