About Indigo Paths Counseling
Gaining insight into your inner world.
I’m Michele, the therapist behind Indigo Paths Counseling.
I didn’t begin my career in a therapy office. For years, I worked in academic and medical publishing. But at midlife, I made the deliberate decision to pivot toward what felt like more meaningful, deeply human work.
Making a significant life shift gave me a first-hand appreciation for the complexities of personal transitions. I know intimately what it feels like to reinvent yourself, question the status quo, and forge a new path when the old one no longer fits.
Therapy for Those Who Don't Fit the Standard Mold
Throughout my years in the field, I’ve had the privilege of serving a wide range of communities across various clinical roles. However, my true passion in private practice is working with teens and adults who often feel like they don’t quite fit the standard mold.
Whether you’re someone feeling like your job, your relationships, or your life feels especially difficult, a teen trying to figure out your identity, a high-masking neurodivergent individual navigating a neurotypical world, or simply someone who wants to understand yourself better, you belong here.
I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Together, we will honor your unique perspective, question expectations that don't serve you, and build a life that feels genuinely yours.
"This isn’t just a business—it’s a reflection of my passion for helping individuals gain insight."
Honoring the intricate layers of your inner experience
Who I Help
For highly sensitive and twice-exceptional individuals, navigating the world often means processing information, emotions, and sensory input at a profoundly deep level. Many of my clients have spent years being told they’re “too much” or “too sensitive,” when in reality, their intensity, complexity, and heightened awareness are often signs of profound potential.
And while this specialization is central to my practice, I welcome clients from all walks of life. My clinical approach is tailored to the individual, and draws on a number of therapies, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), psychodynamic work, narrative therapy, logotherapy, and solution-focused strategies, giving me the flexibility to meet you where you are, whether that’s navigating anxiety, life transitions, identity, relationships, or a simply a search for deeper meaning.
Whether you’ve always felt “different” or you’re simply looking for a thoughtful, integrative approach to therapy, I’d love to help you find your path forward.
