* ACCEPTING THERAPY CLIENTS & SPEAKING OPPORTUNITIES *
Meet Michelle
Hi, I'm Michelle — a queer, Filipina therapist and approved licensed social work clinical supervisor, licensed in both Washington and Oregon. I work with two kinds of people: BIPOC women and femmes in leadership who are exhausted from carrying it all alone, and BIPOC associate clinicians who want culturally-affirming supervision as they build a practice of their own. I offer virtual talk therapy, EMDR, tarot-informed reflection, and virtual clinical supervision — all from a lens that centers your full identity, not just the parts that are easiest to explain at work.
Who I Work With
For BIPOC Women & Femmes in Leadership
You've been praised for your work, but that praise doesn't always land — and you're tired of code-switching, masking, and being the strong one with no one checking in on you. Individual and group therapy sessions can help you close the gap between how capable you look and how capable you actually feel.
For BIPOC Associate Clinicians
You're building toward social work licensure and maybe your own private practice, but most supervision doesn't account for what it actually takes to do this as a person of color — the financial scarcity, the non-linear path, the lack of representation in leadership. Approved social work clinical supervision in Washington and Oregon, from someone who's navigated it herself.
How I Work
-
EMDR (trained since 2022) to work through beliefs and narratives that no longer serve you
-
CBT and DBT-informed talk therapy
-
10+ years in clinical social work, including high-acuity community mental health
-
Tarot-informed reflection available within sessions for those who are curious (optional, never required)
-
100% virtual telehealth, licensed in Washington and Oregon, accepting commercial insurance
Also Curious About Tarot?
Beyond clinical work, Michelle offers tarot card readings as a standalone offering for anyone wanting a different lens for reflection — no therapy relationship required. Tarot can be a way to get out of your head and connect with your body as you make meaning with art, symbols, and imagery from what life throws your way.
