Michelle has extensive experience working for Fortune 500 companies in Account Management and Sales, and also has worked and volunteered in the private sector, including working with survivors of domestic violence, at-risk teenagers in the foster care system, community outreach and advocacy on mental health, and as a reading tutor to elementary school children. Michelle is trained in Phase 1 of Brain-spotting and has a great interest in helping clients with trauma, childhood wounds, attachment issues, anxiety, and depression.
