Michella Thai

Are you currently navigating changes in your life that feel overwhelming? Do you ever find yourself having a hard time putting words to feelings? Is there an important relationship in your life that has felt challenging lately? Do you ever find yourself struggling with, or burning out due to perfectionism? Are you looking to build a better relationship with food and your body? Do you ever find yourself struggling to navigate cultural and inter-generational expectations? Have you been looking for ways to better support your mental health and wellbeing from day-to-day? Whatever season of life you may be in right now, you deserve to feel seen, heard and safe. I work with adults and older adolescents looking for support with these areas of life.

I practice from a client-centred approach, and have a strong social justice orientation. I utilise a number of approaches to therapy, some of which are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solutions-Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioural Therapy. This means that although I use a number of evidence-based approaches, I strive to ensure that sessions are tailored to you, and your unique experiences and identities. I will walk alongside you as we identify your concerns, and clarify steps that help will you reach your therapy goals. While we may dig deep into whatever brings you to therapy, sessions don’t have to be serious all of the time – humour is part of the therapy journey! If you’re feeling like now is the time you’d like to try or re-start therapy, I would be more than happy to schedule a 20-minute complimentary phone consultation to see if we are a good fit.
