About Nurturing Pathways Therapy
Michelle Apruzzese, LMSW
When it rains, it pours! Everyone has those stormy times when different areas of life feel overwhelming. Working with someone to make challenges manageable can bring down the stress and bring back some joy.
My goal is to help you achieve yours. Together, in a safe and focused setting, we will find the methods, tools, and skills that work for you.
I have been an educator for 27 years, working closely with diverse young children and families in crisis and healing from trauma. Having worked as an intern in an inpatient psychiatric unit, I have insight into psychiatric disorders and work well with doctors and other healthcare professionals. I am also master trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy.
