Getting to know Michelle Ufford

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Kansas with over 18 years of experience supporting individuals and families through some of life’s most challenging circumstances (a variety of emotional and psychological struggles). I approach every person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion., sensitivity, and compassion. 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 motivational interviewing. My focus I’m deeply passionate about supporting children, teens, and young adults, especially those who need someone to truly listen and walk alongside them as a teammate in their journey. I specialize in navigating stress, anxiety, relationship issues, anger management, motivation, self-esteem, & confidence. I have also experienced working with depression. 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 with me as an empathetic partner. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be calm but also continue to help you progress. My journey to mental healthcare My therapy journey began by witnessing both children and adults navigate some of life’s most difficult challenges. These experiences sparked a deep desire to help others discover their inner strength and resilience. I’m continually inspired by the belief that every person holds the potential for positive growth and meaningful change. My goals for you I believe that therapy is a team approach. Together, we’ll identify and set goals that matter to you, whether they focus on improving relationships, building self-esteem, or another personal objective.
