About Michelle

There are many reasons to pursue therapy services such as seeking a safe, empowering environment in which all can explore their lived experiences and intersecting identities within the context of the systems in which we live. I aim to cultivate a therapeutic partnership that encourages openness allowing for all clients to promote their best interest while living with agency, authenticity, and purpose. My promise is to be present with you through your self-discovery while always advocating for your human rights regardless of gender, color, or beliefs.

I am a Master’s Level Clinician at Bellevue Counseling with an LSWAIC and a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I specialize in clinical social work focusing on adults and youth through a multi-cultural and social justice lens.

I aim to provide a variety of therapeutic modalities and methods, as well as psychoeducation and experience to bring awareness to social justice, liberation of oppression, and a trauma-informed lens. Previously I have worked with youth and adults in inpatient psychiatric, community mental health, emergency department, and the correctional system.
