Your Life, Your Way...​
Emotional well-being is a vital part of living a healthy and balanced life. It affects how we think, feel, and handle everyday challenges. When we take care of our emotional health, we’re better able to manage stress, build strong relationships, and make positive choices. Emotional wellness also helps us feel more confident, calm, and connected to others. Along with physical health and mental wellness, emotional well-being supports a stronger, more stable life. By recognizing our feelings, practicing self-care, and reaching out for support when needed, we create a healthier, happier life from the inside out.
​
"You are not your anxiety or trauma. Let's uncover the strength within you and build a future of peace and possibility."
My clients' testimonials speak volumes about the positive impact of our sessions. They have experienced transformative changes by altering their thoughts and behaviors, leading to a more fulfilling life.
Real Results...
Michele is a truly remarkable individual that is wise and insightful in so many ways. She has guided me towards reaching goals that I hadn't thought possible before we met. There is no part of my life that hasn't been positively affected since we've connected and I'm grateful that she's on my team. It's rare to find such a genuinely good person that fully invests themselves in your well-being. Michele is that kind of person.

I found Michele several years ago and she’s been such a huge help in my healing process. She’s taught me how important it is to identify the root/source of an issue and work through it by the use of EFT (tapping) - game changer !

I have been working with Michele for the past several months and I already have seen positive changes in my life, both professionally and personally. Her style of therapy is warm and engaging, but she also has a no non-sense approach of making me accountable and I really like that. She was highly recommended by a colleague and it has been a good fit.

Learning how to Tap with Michele was life changing for me. I now can better manage my emotions and I like that I can use tapping no matter where I am, especially when I travel for business. Has been a real help with my anxiety over flying and doing corporate presentations. Thank you, Michele !

Michele makes you feel comfortable and understood in a way that is not often experienced. A good therapist is nonjudgemental, facilitates effective discussions, and provides validation. She is warm, inquisitive, and knowledgeable.

Michele is one of the most down to earth, dedicated, engaging people I've ever met. She gets to the heart of things effortlessly and makes you feel comfortable and safe no matter what you are facing. If you are looking to better yourself in any way, from the minor issues to the major life changing events, Michele hands down would be the first one I'd call. I have worked with her professionally for many years and would recommend her time and time again.
Allison H.
I had been interested in EFT for about a year when I met Michele and she is a true master. Michele brings her incredible gifts of intuition, experience and knowledge to every session, but its her kindness and warmth that builds trust and helps you to feel supported from day one. I highly recommend Michele Vallone.

Michele was recommended to me by my physician because I was having terrible anxiety and panic attacks after my traumatic divorce. She has helped me understand the early causes of my anxiety and taught me to use tools, including Tapping, that helps me to better manage my intense feelings and reduce my episodes of panic. I am so grateful to have found such a skilled and caring therapist.

​I spent years in therapy, trying to find the right person to work with. Well, they say when the student is ready, the teacher will come. That is what I feel I found in my work with Michele Vallone, Lcsw. I think I was finally ready to face things that I had run from in the past. Michele's style and approach made me feel safe to share the trauma I had experienced. So glad to have found her and so appreciative for the work we have done and continue to do.

What's Your Style ?
Clients often ask me, “What’s your style of therapy? How will you approach my treatment?”
It’s a great question—and one that every client should ask when looking for the right therapist.
I’m a traditionally trained psychotherapist with a strong foundation in evidence-based practices, particularly the cognitive-behavioral approach. Over the years, my style has evolved into a more eclectic method, combining various therapeutic techniques to meet the unique needs of each client.
Over the past several years, my work has taken the shape of what's called "Theracoaching"—a blend of traditional therapy and goal-oriented coaching. From therapy, I bring tools for emotional healing, trauma recovery, anxiety management, and addressing limiting beliefs. From coaching, I incorporate motivation, structure, and practical strategies that support personal and professional growth.
"Theracoaching" is especially helpful for individuals who are ready to move forward in life but feel held back by unresolved emotional issues. While it’s not a replacement for clinical therapy in cases of more complex psychological concerns, it offers a holistic path for those seeking both healing and progress.
Ultimately, the most important factor is finding the approach that works best for you.
