Meet Michelle Foskett, LCPC
Since beginning my work as a therapist in 2007, I have been honored to walk alongside adults as they build emotional regulation, deepen self-understanding, and move toward more grounded, meaningful lives. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and trauma, as well as helping people overcome the challenges that come with new life stages.
My Approach
I value the process of getting to know my clients and offering the support they need to find strength, hope, and growth during difficult times. I believe therapy is a collaborative process where you can safely explore your story, better understand your emotional world, and begin to heal the wounds that may be keeping you stuck. Even painful emotions carry important information, and together we can learn how to approach them with curiosity rather than fear.
Trust
Trust is the foundation of the work we do together. The connection we have is just as important as the therapy techniques.
Safety
When you experience psychological safety, it allows new learning to occur.
Growth
As trust and safety deepen, therapy interventions become more effective.
