Suraleah Michaels, PH.D. PC

Please note: At this point Dr Michaels is accepting SELF-PAY ONLY (no insurance)....Also I am currently available by telehealth, no in-person sessions yet. I am hopeful about the summer..... You find yourself struggling, as we all do at times, and want to talk things out. And that is what I have been actively engaged in doing for the past 30 years as a Clinical Psychologist. It never fails to amaze me how people have the capacity to change: to develop their inner resources, leading with their strength and maneuvering past their areas of conflict. Choosing a therapist is quite a significant decision in your life. So I invite you to read on to learn about my point of view, how I think and work, and how you might benefit from it. I hope this helps you come to an informed decision about whether i am the therapist who would best suit you. drsuraleahmichaels.com

I felt very comfortable with Dr. Michaels right away - she has a very calming & understanding presence.
Session went very well. Dr. Michaels was insightful and empathetic. Would very much recommend.
In our first meeting Dr. Michaels was very kind to me - she gave me the expectation that healing can be a long road, and the impression that she is eager to help her patients navigate this road with knowledge, insight and empathy
I can't believe I haven't yet written a review for Dr. M after 4 years and counting! It is quite difficult to write a review because I can't say enough about my experience with her thus far. She is truly one of a kind; she has a masterfully poetic way of challenging me with her insight, guiding me with her genuine engagement, and listening with her immeasurable empathy-- all while being my #1 fan in her sessions. Her own confidence in her work has aided in restoring confidence in myself. Her ability to connect with me through her own anecdotes provides an environment where I feel as if I am both a patient/student and an equal. While her experience as a psychologist is very extensive, her ability to impart wisdom through her clever use of analogies, colloquialisms and the like allows comfortability in an otherwise clinical profession. Her life experiences equally match her educational and professional experiences and she uses both in her sessions to connect with me. Even though the struggles I have presented to her have run the gamut, she is always able and willing to meet me there emotionally-- and with empathy. Dr. M is both knowledgeable and warm, which is reflected in the way she has decorated her office. She encourages me to improve with purpose, and to expand my thoughts. Dr. M has absolutely helped me grow personally as well as strengthen the tools I use to improve my relationships- both with myself and others. I am so fortunate to have her as a doctor and I am thrilled to continue my work with her.

I can't say enough about the experience that I have had working with Dr. Michaels. Finding a therapist at such a critical time for me was obviously so important and I feel so fortunate that I chose her. From our initial session, I knew that I was in the right place. Dr. Michaels has a way of guiding you in just the right way. You always feel that she is rooting for you. Even though I have moved away, I still call for phone sessions. I can't speak highly enough od Dr. Michaels. I truly encourage you to work together!

I count beginning therapy with Dr. Michaels as one of my best life decisions. I have grown in innumerable ways because she both challenges and encourages me to think more broadly. Her insight is apparent in her introduction of herself: she knows who she is and represents herself genuinely in every interaction. I aspire to this also, and I am making good progress because of her example and good advice. She meets me where I am on any given day - intellectually and emotionally, with both practical suggestions and profound thoughts. And she always makes me laugh!

"I have worked with Dr. Michaels at three different transition points in my Her website completely captures her unique combination of intelligence, warmth, and deep life knowledge. I highly recommend calling her if you looking for the perfect blend of head and heart."
Verified patient
I have been going to see her for many years & she is extremely professional with a sharp memory for details - she never takes notes and yet remembers everything. Her listening style is engaged & non-judgmental - she can propose or suggest other paths forward when you are stuck - to allow you to keep your integrity. Her confidence restores hope. Her reassurance confirms sanity. Her empathy throws a lifeline when one is needed. I have grown & developed at work & in personal & family relationships thanks to her ongoing sessions and thoughtful, subtle recommendations.

My experience & visits with Dr. Suraleah Michaels have been so beneficial to my overall well being. Through our sessions, I have been able to develop & strengthen my inner self. I have worked with Dr. Suraleah Michaels on many aspects of life: relationships, marital advice, & personal & business consulting. If you are looking to become the best person you can be I highly recommend Dr. Michaels.

Dr. M gives me practical behavioral advice, does not just sit silently forever. She remembers everything I tell her, is fully engaged with me, never makes me feel rushed thru my time with her. Over the years, I have found that one of her major strengths is her ability to help me identify & resolve conflict. I always feel better after I see her.
