Getting to know Michele Armenia

Hi there, I'm Michele! I’m Michele Armenia, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I love helping children, adolescents, students, young adults, and adults find their best selves while providing support, reassurance, and guidance as needed. **My approach** As we develop rapport throughout our sessions, you’ll notice I use a blended approach to therapy, incorporating different theoretical methods. I find that this integrated approach balances the emotional depth and non-directive nature of Person-Centered Therapy, the optimistic and action-oriented stance of Solution-Focused Therapy, and the cognitive restructuring of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. This combination offers clients a comprehensive therapeutic experience that fosters growth, practical change, and emotional well-being. **My focus** I typically work with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, developing social skills, life transitions, and ADHD. **My communication style** I have an uplifting and welcoming tone that helps create a safe and inviting environment. I believe clients feel supported, valued, and heard when working with me. While the focus is on clients’ thoughts, I also help them challenge those thoughts to develop solutions that empower them. **My journey to mental healthcare** Truthfully, I went to college hoping to pursue a career in law enforcement and eventually become a detective. However, I quickly found myself disliking the criminal justice classes and decided to take a counseling class. I fell in love with that class and knew I needed to explore this field more. I switched to a social work degree for my undergraduate studies. While in college, I spoke with my dad’s friend about being a guidance counselor and what it involves. That conversation inspired me to enroll in graduate school for guidance counseling and to dual major in order to become a Licensed Mental Health Counselor.
