Treatment Approach
Sensitive, effective methods
At Lily, our trained, licensed, therapists hold advanced degrees. We utilize evidence-based psychological principles to ensure the highest level of mental health care.
We also offer a faith-informed approach that honors Biblical values. We integrate Biblical wisdom with clinical techniques for those who prefer it.
Christian counselors recognize and acknowledge that all people have been created in the image of a Holy God and have an innate right to be valued and respected. While we are open about being Christian Counselors in an effort to offer this distinct service approach, you do not have to be a Christian, we are here to serve your needs. We would welcome all who wish to come to counseling for healing regardless of their background or faith, accepting they have made an informed decision to choose the type of treatment they prefer.
Michelle is licensed (LICSW) in both MA and NH providing mental health services since 1999. She earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology and master's in clinical social work with additional certification in Marriage and Family Therapy. She is also a member of AACC and Board Certified as a Professional Christian Counselor (BCPCC).
She has sat with people in both professional and personal ways, in hospitals, homes, and office settings giving her the unique perspective of what it is like to carry the weight of these experiences as you are walking through your journey. How living this life is not well understood and can be met with well-meaning suggestions that feel like platitudes. Where you may be thinking about what life was like before all of this.... or maybe what it will look like in the days ahead.
Her specialty areas include Grief, Caregiver support for Pediatric Palliative Care, Hospice, Women's mental health, depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders to life transitions and chronic illness.
She has clinical interest in the intersection of faith and psychology which prompted the starting of Lily of the Valley Counseling and Consulting pllc where she offers a compassionate, relational approach, committed to creating a safe space where she walks with clients to help them find connection, healing, and hope. "I feel so incredibly honored for the last 27 years of work with those who have allowed me to accompany them in their most vulnerable moments of the journey. I would consider it a privilege to hear your story. "
