Getting to know Michele Rivas

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and hold a PhD in Counselor Education from Syracuse University. I work with clients in English and Spanish, joining them in the healing process of making sense of the different life experiences and developmental transitions that represent challenge, growth, pain, and resilience. I believe people have the inner potential to heal, learn, grow, and solve their issues through genuine connection and collaboration with others.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Clients can expect to experience a sense of understanding of their own internal worlds as well as identify cognitive and emotional strategies to handle their issues.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
