The Found Project

Exciting news — I am officially transitioning my therapy practice from part-time to full-time and expanding my caseload! 🤍

I am currently accepting new clients and referrals for adolescents, college students, young adults, and adults throughout Utah via telehealth and in-person sessions, including afternoon availability.

I especially enjoy supporting clients navigating:
✨ Trauma and nervous system overwhelm
✨ Anxiety and emotional dysregulation
✨ Grief and loss
✨ Burnout and emotional exhaustion
✨ Divorce and major life transitions
✨ Adult women with ADHD
✨ New parents/Postpartum
✨ Identity development and life transition-related stress
✨ I also provide counseling services in ASL for Deaf and Hard of Hearing individuals.

I welcome clients from all backgrounds! I am a BIPOC therapist and am passionate about providing culturally responsive, trauma-informed care for many different communities. I have worked with every population you can think of.

My approach is relational, evidence-based, and tailored to the individual. In addition to traditional talk therapy, I incorporate EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic/nervous system-focused interventions, CBT, EFT and DBT when clinically appropriate.

I currently accept many insurance plans, including Select Health, medicaid, Cigna,Clergy pay, University of Utah health plans, and More. I am also an EAP contracted therapist.

I would also love to continue building collaborative relationships with community providers, schools, universities, and counseling centers throughout Utah. If you maintain a referral list or know someone looking for ongoing outpatient therapy support, I would truly appreciate being considered as a referral option.

First of all, hats off to you. Why? Because the very act of overthinking likely means you’re an intellectual powerhouse BUT that isht is exhausting! Remember that your brain isn’t defective. ⁠ Overthinking is often your brain’s way of saying, “Hey, I’m just trying to protect you!” It thinks that by analyzing every detail, you won’t get caught off-guard when life throws you a curveball (or a whole bunch of curveballs, because let’s be real—life is unpredictable).⁠ ⁠ But, plot twist! Overthinking often doesn’t keep us safe; it just makes us anxious. ⁠ ⁠ It’s like buying 15 cans of beans in preparation for a storm that never comes. Sure, you’re prepared, but now you’re also stressed and stuck with a cupboard full of beans. ⁠ ⁠ Your brain, in its eagerness to protect you, ends up creating an imaginary storm of “what-ifs,” leaving you feeling more like a nervous wreck than a fortress of emotional resilience.⁠ ⁠ Can you relate? ⁠ You don’t have to prepare for disasters around every corner. Life might be unpredictable, but remind yourself that you’re strong enough to handle it, come what may.⁠ ⁠ All my love ⁠ Dr Michaela ❤️⁠ PS - I specialise in supporting ambitious , professional, highly sensitive women conquer their high functioning anxiety so they can excel in their industry WITHOUT the constant emotional overwhelm, overthinking and over-functioning.

Does anyone have a new year's Resolution to go on a healing journey?

10 Years ago I was forced into my healing journey not knowing that I needed it. I was only 19 years old and I was suffering with daily panic attacks and severe PTSD as a result of childhood trauma CSA, an additional assult, faith trauma, and more...

I wished I would have had Something more to guide me on that journey. My therapist was helpful but I wished I would have Known what else I could do in the meantime in between sessions. And I wish I would have known what I could do to help myself on my own on a daily basis.

Now, I am a licensed therapist who hasn't had a panic attack in five years and who is thriving, not just surviving. If you have a goal to just get started. Even in a small way doing the shadow work, doing the inner work, doing something that will better your life every day and help make the process of processing trauma and healing the nervous system a little easier,

I'm so excited to announce this episode with Dr. Faldmo and I had a great conversation

He answered so many questions about frequency and biohacking. Which is the topic I had not heard of before.

I didn't know much about the modalities he teaches in his Book, "The Healing Playbook"

there are so many insights you won't want to miss.

I even learned things to help me on my own journey.
