Hi, I’m Michelle, a final year candidate in UB's Master's of Mental Health Counseling program. For 18 years, I’ve provided career counseling for individuals with physical, cognitive, and mental health challenges. Now, as a Mental Health Counselor-in-training, I bring that same passion to therapy, using person-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive care.

My training includes CBT, solution-focused therapy, harm reduction, and vocational and chemical dependency counseling. I work with clients experiencing negative self-talk, relationship struggles, or unresolved trauma.

My goal is to help you reclaim your voice and strengths. I’ll meet you with humility, without judgment, and with respect for your spiritual background. I’d be honored to support your journey forward.
