Michelle Jordan-Frias, a skilled Clinical Social Worker and Therapist (LISW-S), understands that choosing the right therapist is a personal and significant decision. She provides therapy that is affirming, holistic, and collaborative, fostering an environment where honest self-exploration and healing can thrive. Clients seek her guidance for various concerns, including trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and mood disorders, as well as grief and loss, and issues related to gender and sexuality. Michelle cultivates a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic space that caters to individual needs, recognizing that some clients flourish with creativity and humor while others prefer a tranquil environment. Her therapeutic toolbox comprises Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, mindfulness-based approaches, and expressive arts/play therapies, all tailored to meet the unique requirements of each client. Michelle recognizes the courage it takes to seek counseling, whether for oneself or for a child, and believes that finding the right therapeutic fit is essential for growth. She embodies the philosophy that, as Audre Lorde beautifully stated, “Life isn’t about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”
