Michelle "Markay" Nelson, LCSW
With over 25 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I specialize in helping adults and older adults navigate complex emotional landscapes. My areas of expertise include trauma, traumatic and complicated grief and loss, mood disorders, chronic health disorders, and life transitions.
My practice is grounded in a person-centered perspective, emphasizing the alleviation of suffering to help you become your most authentic self. I utilize evidence-based therapies and have a keen interest in complementary and mind-body healing modalities. My extensive training includes ACT, EMDR, Reiki, Hypnosis, NLP, Nervous System Recalibration (NSR), MORE (Mindfulness Oriented Recovery), and psychedelic-assisted therapies.
I firmly believe that each client is unique and that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to guide you through the healing process, providing a safe space for you to feel your emotions and create change in your life. I am dedicated to helping you make the progress you desire.
In my free time I love the outdoors and all things nature. Tending to my garden, cooking, yoga, camping , paddle boarding, and creative arts all provide restoration and refuge from the hectic world.
