“Michelle gets it. She feels it. She takes you there. She possesses a warmth and comfort with her clients but does so with a genuine, healing spirit. She is a colleague who always demonstrates a “can do” attitude and has an insatiable drive to help people make positive change a reality.”
I am a licensed psychotherapist, somatic experiencing practitioner, adjunct professor at SUNY Stony Brook and founder of Dimensional Psychotherapy.
I believe in the power of therapy. During my lifelong journey as both practitioner and client I have discovered that the most effective method of treatment is one that is, what I describe as, multidimensional. A therapeutic approach that is clinically sound and responsible while also being holistic, experiential, authentic, and often body centered. I am a lecturer and have appeared as a guest expert for the Steve Harvey Show.
After graduating from SUNY Stony Brook with my Masters in Social Work I began working as an Early Intervention Provider for New York State. For over 13 years I worked with families coping with the devastating effects of having a young child on the autistic spectrum. During this period I began working at Neighborhood Counseling Center in Brooklyn, NY as a psychotherapist where I broadened my scope of practice. Here I cultivated my skills and garnered invaluable experience with many populations and issues. I now specialize in treating all degrees of trauma and eating disorders.
