FP Opt-In
Michele finished her Bachelor’s degree in Social Work at Minot State University and at the time wanted to work in a field where she was able to serve her community. She did so providing support during challenging and difficult times working with Ward County Social Services. She went on and pursued her Master’s degree in Social Work at Texas State University and this allowed more flexibility to work in other areas serving the military population; areas included non-profits, inpatient, outpatient and 3 years at a military treatment facility.

Michele approaches her practice with the perspective of teaching people to get to know themselves at a deeper level. Michele believes people know what they need, sometimes they just need help seeing that.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Michele uses CBT to help her clients adopt personal coping strategies that improve emotional regulation and tackle harmful cognitive behaviors like negative thinking and self-criticism.

Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR]

As a psychotherapy treatment, EMDR allows patients to heal from the harmful effects of past psychological trauma by “unblocking” or balancing the mind’s emotional response and relieving PTSD.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

As a variety of CBT, clients with borderline personality disorder benefit the most from DBT. Michele also uses the practice to help those struggling with mood disorders, stress, anxiety, and erratic emotions.
