“I’ve been working with Michele for the past year and a half and honestly couldn’t recommend her more. She’s warm, patient, super easy to talk to, and has this amazing way of helping reframe things that really shifts your perspective. She always creates a comfortable space where I feel safe to open up and work through challenges. Having her as my therapist has made such a big difference in my happiness, stability, and growth.”

Getting to know Michele Germer

I know that navigating life's transitions can feel overwhelming, uncomfortable, and even a little messy at times. Whether you're stepping into adulthood, starting a new career, reshaping relationships, or rethinking your priorities, I'm here to help you find clarity and confidence along the way. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Stony Brook University and a Bachelor's degree from St. Joseph's University, New York - Long Island, which equip me to support you through these changes with understanding and expertise.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My approach is warm, affirming and down-to-earth - with a good dose of humor - because I believe therapy should feel less like a clinical experience and more like a meaningful conversation.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I want you to leave our sessions feeling heard, understood and a little lighter. My hope is that you’ll walk away with more clarity, less stress and feeling empowered to evolve in a way that feels right to you.

Working with Michele so far has been a wonderful experience. I have been in therapy in the past and found it hard to open up. But Michele made me feel comfortable from the very start. She creates a space where I truly feel at ease .
