Hi, I’m Michelle

I am a registered psychologist who believes therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and supportive. I work with individuals navigating anxiety, stress, emotional challenges, trauma, and neurodivergence, using evidence-based approaches such as CBT and ACT alongside strengths-based and neuroaffirming principles. My goal is to support greater self-understanding while providing practical strategies to help overcome challenges and navigate everyday life with greater confidence and well-being. I like to create a warm and friendly environment in the therapy space, often using humour and including your interests where I can.
