Welcome to my site!

Journey Two Serenity

My name is Michelle Milligan.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing Psychotherapy services in the following states Delaware, Nebraska, Vermont, and Utah to adolescence starting at the age of 14 to adults with a wide range of developmental and mental health concerns. I offer telehealth services (however all participants must have a computer or laptop as you cannot use your cell phone) as my therapeutic platform is extremely interactive as we will be able to review worksheets and see videos together) individual, group, couples, and family therapy.

Theoretical Approach to working with clients includes…

Race-based traumatic stress, a term used to describe the stress Black Americans experience because of cultural, individual, and institutional encounters with racism. Behavioral Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy “CBT”, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy “TF-CBT”, Brief Therapy/ Problem Focused Therapy and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy. I specialize in mood disorders (depression and bipolar), anxiety (social phobia and PTSD), transitional stressors (divorce, grief, occupational and family changes), couples and family counseling, behavioral problems with adolescents, ADD and AD/HD, and problems with anger and impulsivity. Now focusing on working with clients that have experienced racism in the workplace.

Client issue strengths?

I am compassionate, honest, and supportive when working together with clients to meet their treatment goals. I also have the ability to “connect” with teens, and family issues, as well the ability to be “direct” when needed.

For me, therapy is… Having the courage and willingness to grow and change to make your life better.

Dear Client’s,

Journey Two Serenity is now offering Teletherapy as our primary therapeutic treatment and care for clients who meet the guidelines under their insurance policy. (You will need to contact your insurance provider to verify if your policy covers this service before making an appointment with me). However, currently most insurance providers are now covering this service for therapist to continue the continuity of care with their clients.

Currently, I’m using Doxy.me https://doxy.me/journeytwosere.... Please note that a telehealth session is conducted in the same way as if you are in my office. Therefore, all participants must be in a nonmobile private safe place to participate in our telehealth session. Which includes having a good Internet connection to avoid audio or visual issues during our session. All patients must have a laptop or computer, as you cannot use your cell phone.  This is because my virtual platform is extremely exceptionally interactive. We can share screens and use whiteboards. Most clients feel as though they are still face-to-face with me in the office. Please take the time prior to our session to complete the Pre-Call Test.
