Holistic Trauma Therapy in Concord,NC
Inclusive online therapy for adults throughout North Carolina who are struggling with stress, identity, trauma, and abuse recovery
Have you been feeling disconnected from the world around you?
From your friends, family, coworkers, or partner?
Or even from yourself?
Do you find yourself fading into the background becoming an observer rather than an active participant?
Are you ever frozen in the middle of a conversation not sure how to respond?
Constantly wondering how you should act around certain people or different situations?
Always feeling like you are walking on eggshells?
Finding serenity in this world is truly a radical act.
You don’t have to continue living disconnected, depressed, or on constant alert. You don’t have to shrink yourself to fit into prescribed roles or beliefs systems forced on you by others.
You can reclaim your independence and self-worth after relational abuse. You can release the shame and guilt from religious trauma. You can honor your true identity apart from who society has told you to be.
I am passionate about supporting those seeking to heal from childhood trauma, religious trauma, or narcissistic abuse. I help my clients shed unhealthy expectations and beliefs, reconnect with their authentic selves, and find genuine peace within themselves and their place in this world.

Collaborative Healing
Hi, I am Michelle! I believe that true healing cannot happen alone. Most of our trauma occurs from relationships, therefore, healing requires safe connection. My priority is to provide a safe, empathetic, and supportive environment to facilitate authentic healing and growth. In our sessions, you determine your goals and what feels most comfortable for you. I am here to collaborate with you by offering encouragement, accountability, and support.
Inclusive Safe Space for All
Radical Serenity is emphatically liberation-focused, anti-racist,
de-colonial, and anti-oppressive. I support individuals of all identities, cultures, bodies, and backgrounds. I believe that understanding individual trauma must also include the systems and external dynamics that affect one’s internal experience, and I integrate this perspective with my clients.
Please, reach out if you have any questions!

Depression Therapy
Frustrated with feeling numb, exhausted, and isolated? I help my clients get unstuck, reclaim their self-worth, and step back into their life with confidence and excitement. I don’t just teach you how to mask your depression; I help you identify why you are feeling this way and how to make effective, lasting changes.
Narcissistic Abuse Recovery
Experiencing harm from people with narcissistic traits can lead to feeling confused, disconnected, hurt, and isolated. But learning how to walk away can be equally as confusing and difficult. I empower my clients to reclaim their strength, courage, and self-love while identifying actionable steps forward to a clearer, happier life on their own terms.
Religious Trauma Therapy
Religion can be a source of love and community. Unfortunately, it can also use coercion, guilt, and shame that leaves devastating marks on one’s innermost values and belief systems. I help my clients by identifying those harmful beliefs, overcoming shame, and claiming a life and identity that feels most authentic, safe, and healthy for them.

When beginning therapy, weekly 60-minute sessions are most effective. This helps create consistency, accountability, and the ability to best measure progress. Many clients find this helpful for the first 3-6 months. Once you feel confident in your progress, sessions are typically reduced to every other week. The timeline looks different for everyone, and we will collaborate together on ensuring your therapy is most effective for you.

Clients are able to schedule sessions via their own client portal. You can schedule week to week or a few weeks out. If you prefer meeting at the same day/time every week, I can block that time for you as long as you show up for your sessions. We can also discuss different scheduling options during our consultation call.
Cancellation Policy
Cancellations and re-scheduled sessions will be subject to a full charge if not received at least 24 hours in advance. This is necessary because a time commitment is made to you and is held exclusively for you. If you are late for a session, you may lose some of that session time. If you are able to reschedule within the same week, the late cancellation fee will be dropped.
