Elle Michel
Psychotherapist - LMFT
I specialize in the treatment of addiction and complex PTSD, which can present as traumatic stress, substance abuse, eating disorders, suicidality, self-harm, and relationship issues. I offer free phone coaching in between sessions so my clients can get support to help them navigate challenges in real time.
I am trained in EMDR, Brainspotting,Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness Based Psychotherapy.
I pull from cutting-edge neuroscience as well as spiritual and philosophical traditions in my approach to therapy. I also incorporate cognitive-behavioral, dialectical-behavioral, family systems, and psychodynamic approaches in my work. My goal is to support my clients as they grow toward leading more fulfilling, happy, and healthy lives.
Give me a call for a free phone consultation and assessment. I can be reached at 310.383.5148 and at ellemichelpsychotherapy@gmail.com. All inquiries are confidential.
Additionally, I am fluent in Spanish and offer therapy in Spanish.
