Michelle Garcia

Michelle Garcia is a compassionate Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) and psychologist specializing in trauma and attachment across the lifespan. She understands that many individuals seeking therapy often find that their symptoms run deeper than surface-level concerns like stress, relationship difficulties, and anxiety. Michelle believes in the power of healing and utilizes various modalities such as play therapy, EMDR, DBT, CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed yoga to support children, adolescents, and adults in overcoming past challenges and cultivating healthier patterns in their lives. With a strong foundation in Theraplay, an evidence-based family therapy model, Michelle assists parents and children in building positive connections and healthy interactions. Her experience includes working with children who face difficulties in connecting with their parents due to behavioral issues, trauma, and other mental health conditions, including ASD. Michelle is dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate their struggles and find peace and connection. She welcomes the opportunity to engage with those in need of relational counseling through consultations to explore the best fit for their therapeutic journey.
