Hi, I'm Michaela.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor, EMDR therapist, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and equine assisted psychotherapist specializing in trauma, eating disorders, anxiety, attachment wounds, and life transitions. As a queer clinician, I am passionate about creating affirming and inclusive spaces and especially welcome members of the LGBTQIA+ community.

I am dual certified in Natural Lifemanship as both an Equine Professional and Licensed Mental Health Professional and bring nearly 27 years of experience with horses into my work. I believe the horse human relationship offers powerful opportunities for connection, healing, and growth.

I created intensive therapy experiences for people who are ready to move beyond coping and into meaningful, lasting change. Through a personalized blend of EMDR, parts work, somatic approaches, nature, and equine assisted psychotherapy, we create the space to explore what has been keeping you stuck and reconnect with the version of yourself that feels most authentic and alive.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and deeply compassionate. Whether you're navigating old wounds, a major life transition, or simply feeling disconnected from yourself, I would be honored to walk alongside you on your journey.

In my free time I am most likely to be found somewhere in nature, with animals, or singing my favorite songs. I enjoy reading and writing poetry, discovering new music, or relaxing on a big fluffy couch watching my favorite comfort TV shows.
