Getting to know Michelle Naidenoff

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 15 years of experience working with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, relational issues, grief and loss, stress management, and codependency issues. I take a holistic approach to therapy, collaborating closely with my clients to create an individualized treatment plan. My approach My approach to therapy is eclectic depending on the individual needs of my clients which may change throughout the course of treatment. I commonly utilize motivational interviewing, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and solution-focused care. My focus I commonly work with adult clients struggling with various challenges including relational issues, depression, anxiety, stress management, divorce, grief and loss, and codependency issues. My communication style With my calm and personable communication style, I aim to create a non-judgmental environment for my clients that promotes learning new skills and growth. I want my clients to feel supported and cared for while they become the best versions of themselves. My journey to mental healthcare From a very young age, I was told by my friends and family that I was a “good listener” and have always enjoyed helping others succeed at reaching their goals and becoming the best versions of themselves. I was naturally drawn to the field of psychology in college and my goal was to have a private practice which I eventually established so I could continue making a difference in people’s lives. My goals for you I take a collaborative approach to goal setting and encourage goals that are valuable to each client’s growth and development of their skills. My first session with you Our first session together will include establishing rapport by me asking various questions so I can see and understand my client’s world through their eyes and the challenges they’re facing.
