Michelle is a Registered Social Worker with over 10 years of experience and a Certified Pediatric Sleep Consultant through The Institute of Pediatric Sleep and Parenting™. She also holds a Master of Social Work degree from the Wurzweiler School of Social Work at Yeshiva University in New York.

As both a therapist and a mother of two young children, Michelle understands firsthand the challenges of navigating parenthood—especially the impact that lack of sleep can have on parents, children, and the entire family system. Her lived experience, combined with her clinical expertise, fuels her passion for helping families restore rest and find balance during the transition to becoming a new (or new-again) parent.

Michelle believes that sleep is not a luxury, but a vital foundation for emotional regulation, stress management, and overall well-being. She works with families to create healthier sleep routines, supporting parents in feeling like themselves again while fostering long-term resilience.

In her therapy practice, Michelle brings an extensive background in the child welfare sector and specializes in supporting individuals and families through a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, life transitions, peer and family relationships, and general self-care. Her client-centered, solution-focused approach meets clients where they are, helping them tap into their strengths, develop healthy coping strategies, and work toward meaningful, lasting change.

Michelle works with youth, adolescents, young adults, caregivers, and adults, providing a safe, compassionate space to break down barriers and embrace one’s authentic self—at their own pace.
