Michelle Jay, LPC

Michelle Jay, LPC

Psychotherapist
TX
You matter. Your feelings matter. Your story and your healing matter. By reaching out for help, you have already taken the first brave and necessary step to self-care and personal growth. I would be honored to walk with you in your journey to better health. My approach Drawing from over 30 years of experience working with children, adults, and families as both a licensed professional counselor and a special education teacher, I use multiple therapeutic approaches to explore each person's unique needs with a mix of empathy, advocacy, humor, and realness. I have extensive experience working with individuals affected by trauma, grief, anxiety, and depression, as well as autism, ADHD, and ODD. I am trained in EMDR and offer a collaborative approach to treatment. My focus We will work on what you want at a pace and using an approach that feels right to you. My role will ebb and flow as we develop trust. Sometimes that means I am a listener, allowing you to express your thoughts and feelings in a safe space. Sometimes I will be more directive to help challenge negative things and behaviors. My communication style I will always be professional, and I am always going to be real with you. I am not perfect, do not have all the answers, and I know that therapy can feel scary. I hope to bring lightness and compassion when your world feels dark and cold. I might cry with you, I might join in your anger, and I will definitely bring some laughter where we can find it. My journey to mental healthcare How long do I have? Honestly, from a young age, I was the one to not just listen when others needed to vent or share something they were struggling with, but was able to remain neutral, kind, and good-humored in the toughest situations and always find a way to hold on to hope that things will get better. My goals for you We create the goals that fit you. Goals that are realistic and attainable, and focus on what matters most to you.
