MICHELLE INGROSSO, LMHC

Sometimes, the biggest obstacles in our lives are the ones we unknowingly create ourselves. As a licensed mental health counselor specializing in therapy for high-achieving professionals, I understand the unique pressures that come with success—and the hidden struggles that often accompany it.

My Journey to Holistic Counseling for Professionals

For over a decade, I've witnessed the same pattern: brilliant professionals who've achieved remarkable success on the outside while battling overwhelming stress, anxiety, and burnout on the inside. You're not broken, and you don't need fixing—you need understanding, tools, and a safe space to rediscover the passion that once drove you.

My path to becoming a licensed therapist in Miami began with my own recognition that traditional approaches often miss the mark for high-performers. You need someone who understands that your standards are different, your pressures are unique, and your time is precious.

What Makes My Approach Different

I blend therapeutic expertise with real-world understanding. Having worked extensively with executives, entrepreneurs, lawyers, and medical professionals, I've developed a deep appreciation for the complexities of high-achievement culture. My holistic counseling approach addresses not just your symptoms, but the whole person navigating demanding professional responsibilities.

Your sessions are designed around your reality. I know you can't always predict when a crisis will hit or when you'll need extended support. My flexible approach adapts to your world, not the other way around.

MY CLINICAL FOCUS

My Philosophy: Strength Through Self-Awareness

Take a moment today to reflect on what needs work and what makes you shine—because your journey to a better you starts with self-awareness and action. I believe that lasting change happens when you feel truly seen, understood, and supported in your growth.
