Getting to know Daniela Michel

Hi there, I'm Daniela! My name is Daniela Michel, and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) with a Master's in Psychology from Alliant International University. I strive to provide support, collaboration, guidance, and empathy. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and life changes. My approach My approach to therapy is eclectic, incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Humanistic, solution-focused, and Attachment-Based techniques. I collaborate with clients to find the best approach based on their unique needs. My focus My style and approach are a good fit for adults impacted by depression, anxiety, ADHD, stress, and life changes. I work to help my clients overcome barriers and limitations created by society, environment, and childhood trauma. My communication style My communication style is open, empathetic, reflective, unique, and receptive. My journey to mental healthcare My passion for becoming a therapist was sparked by my career as a behavioral therapist, where I provided support for individuals impacted by autism. Though I strongly believed in cognitive behavioral therapy and witnessed successful outcomes, I realized there was an emotional component missing from this approach. To improve or decrease symptoms and behaviors, we need to address not only our behaviors but also our emotions. This realization led to my eclectic approach to therapy. As a Latina, I was taught to be strong, self-sacrificing, and to survive regardless of challenges. For many years, like most people, I acted as though nothing was wrong and concealed my anxiety and stress. Once I began my healing journey, I understood the importance of my emotions and how they impacted my behaviors and life. I would like to support you on this journey-helping you uncover concealed emotions, learn their impact, and discover how to effectively process them.
