CHARACTER TESTIMONIALS
Michelle is a kind, caring, thoughtful and natural leader. We are incredibly lucky that she has been in our lives as a therapist for our daughter. Her humor and relatability is a gift in helping young people grow and understand themselves on a deeper level. Her compassion is real, and it shows in everything she does.
~ Lana H.
Michelle consistently gives her all. Her warmth and true love for what she does reaches all of those around her. Michelle is always brainstorming how to help her others grow. She often forms long standing connections with students and families and is known for being engaging, and warm. She focuses on each individual's strengths but also carefully observes areas where they need support. She is a dedicated, creative professional. In addition, she has a fabulous personality that makes it fun for all ages to be around her. I'm so excited that Michelle is behind AZ Embers, what an incredible community for tween and teen girls!
