About

I have always been fascinated by the body’s ability to influence how we think and feel. My work integrates movement, mindfulness, and nervous system coaching to strengthen brain–body communication and build emotional and functional resilience. I am committed to helping individuals improve health and well being through the use of non-invasive, evidence based therapeutic techniques.

Testimonials

“Words can’t express how helpful you've been and how much our daughter has progressed! To have found someone who believed me when I expressed concerns and have you there has been amazing support! You’re kind, flexible, understanding and phenomenal with kids! ”

M. S. - Parent

“I want to sing the praises of Ms. Byars. I'd taken my son with SPD & anxiety to an OT and a “talk” therapist but it didn’t really work. Michelle was recommended and the difference in him is amazing. She's truly been a life changer for us.” ”

K.B. - Parent

“If you could measure gratitude for you it would reach heaven. Our child is off all meds, is reading, writing and doing math. He's able to control reactions & making friends with peers. You've turned a world upside down for 5 years right side up in 7 months. ”
