Meet Michelle Nelms, LCPC
Practicing since: 2013
Michelle’s passion is journeying alongside those who are suffering from a broken heart. She utilizes a non-denominational faith-based approach trusting in God’s Word. She wants to treat the reasons and not just the symptoms to make a difference.
Her hope is that her clients will grow in self-understanding, healing, and emotional intelligence. She identifies the underlying causes of what keeps us stuck by utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment Theory. She also believes in using psychoeducation and light homework assignments to help deepen and enhance the healing process.
Michelle is a graduate from Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia.
Michelle is licensed in the state of MD (#LC7481).
