About

We listen, support, and empower

Thriving Within, LLC is available for counseling and mental health services. We serve ALL individuals and families, adolescents and older, who experience depression, anxiety, psychiatric symptoms, trauma response and/or substance misuse. Through an individualized approach, people will increase their agency, well-being, connection to self/others and increase their sense of self. Eli Michael, LCSW, CDC I has experience working with adolescents, families and adults. Sometimes people seek counseling to talk about the past, future or present. Sometimes people want to learn skills to manage symptoms of anxiety, stress, depression or trauma response. Others come to process and heal from traumatic events. Eli uses an eclectic approach of Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused Cognitive Therapy (TF-CBT), Dialectic Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness and Attachment, Regulation, and Competency (ARC) therapy to help people reach their therapeutic goal. Thriving Within, LLC is working towards accepting most public and private insurance. We also offer private pay with sliding scale with pro bono slots available. We can provide a superbill for clients out of network to submit for reimbursement if needed. Please call your insurance to verify benefits prior to your first appointment. If you would like or need help applying for insurance or state benefits, please contact us. If we are unable to meet your needs, we will provide recommendations to help connect you to the appropriate service. A community thrives when we are all thriving.
