Therapy is a courageous act of self-love, opening the door to healing and reclaiming your inner peace.

Hi, I’m Michelle Lester, LCSW.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, my focus is on helping adults/college students prioritize their well-being. Therapy is a courageous act of self-love, and together we’ll confront fears, heal past wounds, and gain the clarity needed for forward progress. My goal is to support you in building an authentic and fulfilling life, guiding you toward inner peace and renewed hope.

Beyond therapy, I’m all about staying active, savoring delicious food, and exploring new destinations. I treasure time with my husband, daughter, family, and our dog who adds an extra dose of joy in our lives. 

My quirky side shines through in my enthusiasm for new adventures, enjoying simple pleasures, and dancing with those I love.

Warmth, empathy, and a touch of light-heartedness
