About

My name is Michelle Juhasz and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been licensed for four years and have over 12 years of experience in various social work settings and populations, including the child welfare system, immigration, commercially sexually exploited children (CSEC), victims of domestic abuse and trauma, LGBTQ, and severally emotionally disturbed youth. I have a passion to work with and advocate for individuals needing mental health services. I use a holistic approach, focusing on the myriad of factors that contribute to mental illness, and work with my clients to balance and re-evaluate their daily routines and practices in order to achieve success and healing. I work with individuals, children, and families from diverse backgrounds and value and uphold cultural sensitivity to the highest degree. I have extensive experience working with teenage youth who have experienced trauma and abuse and assisted in creating the mental health program for a local short-term residential therapeutic program (STRTP). As a holder of a Pupil Personnel Service Credential, I have worked many hours and days in the school systems, working on the issues that face our children in schools, such as bullying, discrimination, and identifying the appropriate learning environments and tools for children with special education needs. My work has also extended to those exhibiting severe and persistent mental illnesses such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, major depression, and borderline personality disorder. It is my belief that every individual deserves productive, accessible, and appropriate mental health services. I work with community partners to bring less stigma and more normalcy to the topic of mental health and healing and am 100% committed to my clients’ success.
