Michele Kong

Michele Kong, a licensed psychoanalyst, MFA, CPC, SEP, and LP, welcomes each person with openness and loving acceptance as a unique and creative whole. She values all aspects of individuals, cherishing each behavior for its essential function. Michele collaborates with clients to identify patterns, habits, beliefs, and blocks that contribute to stress and interfere with fulfillment, satisfaction, and joy. Together, they examine diverse areas of life including purpose, career, relationships, grief and loss, trauma recovery, and more. Utilizing a holistic approach, Michele embraces tears and laughter, joy and fear, anger and sorrow, fostering an environment where clients can let go and embrace anew. Her decades of experience in yoga, Aikido, and meditation inform her mindfulness-based approach, creating a calm presence coupled with dynamic energy that provides a safe space for rich inquiry. Clients learn to balance stress while embracing greater ease, choice, meaning, and aliveness. Those with prior therapy experiences are particularly drawn to Michele's methods, which support a greater body-mind connection and integration. She often works with professionals from diverse backgrounds, including advocates, creatives, educators, healing arts practitioners, and those engaged in community-based services, healthcare, and social impact organizations.
