Getting to know Michelle Cauley

Hi, I'm Michelle Cauley. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Cognitive Coach with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Southern California and a Bachelor's degree from California State University Long Beach. I work with individual adults and couples experiencing high-functioning depression, stress, and anxiety. My goal is to help you pause, recognize, and understand your inner voice, then rewrite your script so you can get back to living your life.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Starting therapy is an important step. My approach is warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive, focusing one each person’s unique experiences and background are acknowledged in the healing process. I specialize in working with high-achieving professionals, entrepreneurs, and individuals navigating life transitions, stress, and burnout. Sessions with me are interactive and solution-focused, integrating practical tools with deeper self-exploration. I believe therapy should be a supportive partnership, where you feel safe to explore challenges, identify patterns, and make meaningful changes. Whether you’re facing anxiety, workplace stress, relationship concerns, or simply seeking personal growth, I am here to guide and support you with compassion, insight, and actionable strategies.
