Dr. Michael’s therapeutic style is warm, practical, and collaborative. Her approach to pediatric and adult psychiatric evaluations and treatment is holistic, astutely assessing the environmental, biological, psychological and genetic interplay and influence on mental health.

She blends evidence-based psychopharmacology (medication management) with psychodynamic, attachment-based and behavioral (cognitive and dialectical) psychotherapy modalities. Dr. Michael also incorporates elements of functional and integrative medicine, when appropriate, to evaluate for contributing factors to psychiatric symptoms and as an additional treatment approach to optimize wellness.

Dr. Michael treats depression, anxiety, ADHD, OCD, PTSD and adjustment disorders.
