Michelle works with individuals, couples, and families in Newport Beach, CA. Whether you're navigating trauma, anxiety, communication struggles, or family conflict, she provides a supportive, structured space to help you heal and grow.

Yes—Michelle is an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT), which means she is pre-licensed and works under clinical supervision as she completes her licensure hours. This allows clients to receive high-quality care that is collaborative, trauma-informed, and often more affordable.

The Couples Therapy and Reunification Counseling is a private-pay practice. Michelle’s sessions are offered at a reduced rate to make therapy more accessible. We’re happy to provide superbills or help you explore reimbursement options through your insurance’s out-of-network benefits.

She’s especially attuned to clients who want both insight and practical tools—and who value feeling truly heard in the therapy room.
