My approach focuses on delivering effective strategies that cultivate emotional connections with oneself and empower women to pursue their goals from a place of worthiness and self-confidence.

Michelle Directo
Registered Psychotherapist, MDiv, RP, ExA
Hello, my name is Michelle.
I am a registered psychotherapist who draws from a variety of different approaches. I am a mother of 4 children. I love to read, go hiking, meet new people, and traveling. I appreciate the steps that you are taking towards change and growth. I personally understand what it is like to come from a place of needing and asking for help. This awareness helps me to empathize and create a place for you to share your unique experiences. I would love the opportunity to provide a safe space for you to do so. It would to be an honor for me to help you re-write new chapters in your story. I provide a 15 minute free consultation in which you can determine if I am the right fit for you.

Sarah Colen
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Whether it be depression, anxiety, disordered eating, low self-worth, or anything else in between, being stuck in the cycle of "not good enough" can make anyone feel unsafe and unassured in their future. Through an anti-oppressive and healing-centered lens, I emphasize the importance of a supportive, open, and warm therapeutic space. In using compassion, warmth, and non-judgment, I believe in a collective-modality approach-- a blend of IFS, Somatic Experiencing, Mindful Self-Compassion, and EFT--to help you achieve your specific therapeutic goals. While I work with a range of issues (like Anxiety, Depression, and PTSD), my area of expertise is in Eating Disorders/ Disordered Eating. Most importantly, my aim is to help others find balance, stability, hope, and joy in their lives. When you feel ready, let's begin to mend the parts of you that feel "not enough". I look forward to watching you heal, grow, and thrive.
