      <image:title>About Michelle Baumgartner - Finding a Counselor in Modesto, Ca Can Be TOUGH!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Who knew when you started googling find a therapist near me that you would’ve find so many therapists in Modesto. And yet, sometimes it can feel like they are all saying the same thing. How do you find someone who truly meets your needs and understands what YOU are all about? My name is Miranda Palmer and I became a therapist because I deeply love helping people who have been through hard situations and want to make their life better. I love seeing people not just heal, but the impact that they make when they are happier and healthier on their families, friends, and communities. I have a Master’s Degree in Psychology and specialized training and experience in working with multiple types of traumatic experiences. My specialties include anxiety, trauma, PTSD, toxic relationships, and couples therapy. I know it can feel like a big step to call a counselor, but I’ll make it easy. We’ll spend 15-minutes on the phone and I’ll let you know how or if I can help. If I am not the right person, I’ll do my best to get you to the right person. Contact me at (515) 999-6690 for your free 15-minute phone consultation for counseling in Modesto.</image:caption>
