choosing a therapist can be difficult

Nice to meet you!  I'm Michelle.

I've long had a passion for helping others, even though my path to social work was not exactly linear. Having had the privilege of volunteering and working with vulnerable folks, I was drawn to helping others using practical knowledge. At the same time, I also have a strong interest in learning and understanding theory. My experiences helping folks and completing post-secondary education helped me bring together both theory and real-world practice in a way that feels grounded and useful. 

As a therapist, I believe in the transformative power of connection and people's ability to grow and adapt. My style is compassionate, patient, genuine, and playful. I strive to create a space where people feel comfortable being themselves, working through things at their own pace. It's a privilege to be part of that process and to support people in their growth, one conversation at a time.
