You don't have to keep carrying everything alone.

Michelle Kramer LCSW California License #139260

Therapy for anxiety, trauma, grief, life transitions, and relationship challenges. In-person in Lafayette and throughout California via telehealth.

Hi, I'm Michelle.

Life can be messy, overwhelming, and sometimes painful. I know what it feels like to navigate life's unexpected challenges and search for a way forward. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood while we work together toward meaningful change. I also offer EMDR therapy to help clients process difficult experiences and move toward healing.

Who I help

  • The person who appears strong but is exhausted.
  • The overthinker who can't quiet their mind.
  • The caregiver who puts everyone else first.
  • The person navigating grief, loss, or a major life transition.
  • The one carrying old wounds that still impact life today.

My Approach

I don't believe people are broken. I believe many of us are carrying experiences, stories, and expectations that make it difficult to see ourselves clearly. Therapy isn't about becoming someone different. It's about reconnecting with who you are beneath the pain, fear, and self-doubt.

Private Pay Pricing

Choosing therapy is an investment in yourself and your future. I currently operate as a private-pay practice and can provide a superbill for clients who would like to pursue out-of-network reimbursement through their insurance plan.

Good Faith Estimate:

If you don’t have health insurance or you plan to pay for health care bills yourself, generally, health
care providers and facilities must give you an estimate of expected charges when you schedule an
appointment for a health care item or service, or if you ask for an estimate. This is called a “good faith
estimate.” Rising From Within LLC ( Rising From Within Counseling ) will provide an annual good faith estimate to any client planning to pay for therapy without the use of insurance.
