Counseling Services of Michelle Adler, NCC, LPC

Counseling Services of Michelle Adler, NCC, LPC Counseling in a comfortable, compassionate place. This page is for anyone who needs it. It has been my dream to start my own private practice for a LONG time.

I am hoping to help better people's mental health and normalize the use of counseling and therapy. I hope that there are things that are on here that are inspiring, hopeful, insightful, and make you smile! I have worked in many places in this awesome field: on the front line of people with severe mental health, with adolescent boys and girls, along with their families, groups for adults, at a state prison for men, and worked at several private practice. I have an extensive background in treating trauma. I am also an empath. If there are any specific things I can help you with, send me a message and I will have an answer or point you in a good direction to get it. About My Services:

I offer individual, family, couples, and group therapy to children, adolescents, teenagers, and adults. I welcome anyone from the LBGT plus community. I also help work with people seeking gender reassignment process to assist in therapy so they can obtain hormone replacements, surgery, name changes and other issues. I also work with people who have been charged with DUI and seeking court ordered therapy. Children of divorced, separated, or divorcing parents are safe to come to my office without fear of parents fighting in therapy. Some parents and children come to see me to help with communication, behavioral concerns, and working through family problems. I currently have a group that meets to work on interpersonal relationships, boundaries and anxiety. If you are interested in being a part of a specific group, please ask. The current group was formed by someone asking and I presented to some others I see on a regular basis who were interested. I have the ability to use the internet for elemental health as well. Please contact me for further details. You can check me out further on Psychology Today Erie Counselor!

I do not think that saying “doing therapy & working on your own issues takes bravery” really drives home the point of how difficult & uncomfortable it really can be…I do know that for working on my own issues, as a therapist, I question the process, don’t like the process, at times need breaks & I get that when life is happening we might not also have the energy/emotional capacity left to work on things, but with all that said it still feels worth it on the other side of many issues!?! Best use of money & energy I’ve ever spent (we can waste both on so many on things that we literally get nothing out of). But I don’t like it all the time, it’s not easy, I do not always feel confident in what I’m doing & it takes a lot of learning & practicing. I’m uncomfortable a lot as well. I need to be uncomfortable because the things I’ve been comfortable with have hurt in so many ways & set so many barriers/blocks in my life that keep me from being authentically myself, hurting myself & others, & holding me back from where I want to go.

two art-based support groups:

1. Creative Identity Group – Starting this Tuesday (1–2 PM) during lunch hour! It’s a supportive, judgment-free space to make art, connect, and explore healthy identity and self-expression.

2. Latinx Art Support Group – This group has already started but continues to welcome new participants anytime! It’s a culturally affirming space for members of the Latinx community to connect and create together.

These are support groups (not therapy groups), open to anyone interested in artmaking as a way to connect and reflect. Participants are welcome to join all 8 sessions or just come to one.

Glad someone “official” has declared this…most of us knew that it’s wrong but I guess we all on the same page now?

In light of recent oral arguments at the Supreme Court in the Chiles v. Salazar case, ACA reaffirms that conversion therapy is a harmful practice. We also reaffirm our commitment to supporting policies that protect clients, uphold professional standards and advance the integrity of the counseling profession. As part of a coalition of mental health organizations, we have signed on to a friend of the court brief reiterating:

• Conversion therapy is a dangerous and discredited practice
• Psychotherapy is more than simply ‘talking’ — it is a medical treatment and therefore can be regulated by states
• Conversion therapy can fuel stigma and discrimination toward the LGBTQ+ community
