Getting to know Michele Balthrope
I have over 30 Years of Experience in Social Work, Human Services, and Counseling. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a PhD and MSW, I bring over thirty years of experience to my work supporting individuals through life's challenging moments. I am also a Certified Anger Management Specialist (CAMS-II), equipped to help clients develop healthier emotional regulation strategies.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in compassion, authenticity, and the principle of "meeting you where you are." I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to take an active role in your healing journey.
Whether you're experiencing anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, or navigating major life transitions, I take an integrative approach to treatment that considers your biological, psychological, emotional, spiritual, and social well-being. Together, we will co-create a personalized and holistic plan tailored to your unique needs and goals.
My mission is to help you gain clarity, build resilience, and improve your overall quality of life—one step at a time.

More information on payments and coverage
After scheduling your appointment through Zocdoc, you will receive a follow-up email from Tava with instructions to complete the necessary registration in our patient portal, including insurance and payment details. Placing a credit card on file is required to process insurance billing and any applicable deductible-related charges. Please complete your registration within 24 hours to ensure a smooth check-in and avoid delays in accessing care. If registration is not completed in time, we may not be able to verify your insurance coverage, which could result in unexpected out-of-pocket costs for your visit. Per our office policies, a fee may be charged for missed appointments or late cancellations.
