Getting to know Michelle King-thompson

Hi there, I'm Michelle! Have you been struggling with anxious thoughts and self-doubt? I help people who are managing anxiety and life transitions develop the tools they need to build their self-esteem. My approach I use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help you identify and reshape unhelpful thought patterns. This approach is hands-on and gives you tools to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors. Based on your unique needs, I may adapt my approach to include practices like mindfulness and medication. Your goals and progress are my focus. My focus In our work together, I’ll combine empathy with practical tools to help you find relief from whatever is holding you back and build confidence in who you are. My communication style I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm and supportive. My journey to mental healthcare My journey began with a deep curiosity about human resilience and the desire to help others find strength through life’s hardest challenges. During my graduate training, I had the opportunity to work with survivors of trauma. This experience showed me the powerful role therapy can play in recovery and solidified my commitment to support. My goals for you I believe that therapy is a partnership. Together, we’ll identify and set goals that matter to you, whether they focus on improving relationships, building self-esteem, or another personal objective. As we work together, your goals may evolve as you gain new insights. We can adapt our plan at any time to ensure it’s always meaningful and relevant. My first session with you Our first session will be an opportunity for us to get to know one another. We’ll discuss your background and what brings you to therapy.
