About Michelle

I’m Michelle Mateus, and I’m passionate about helping people across Texas thrive — whether in person in Rockwall or online from the comfort of your home. I believe therapy should meet you where you are, honoring your unique story and helping you develop the tools to feel grounded, confident, and ready to move forward.

I specialize in working with children, teens, and young adults facing anxiety, emotional challenges, school struggles, communication breakdowns, and family dynamics. My goal is to help you build emotional resilience, navigate life’s transitions, and strengthen relationships within your family.

Support for the Whole Family

Whether you’re a parent concerned about your child, a teen feeling overwhelmed, or an adult seeking clarity and support, I provide compassionate, personalized care for individuals age 6 and up. Together, we’ll create a plan that fits your needs and supports your growth.

• Eating Disorders

• Behavioral or School Issues

• Family & Parenting Challenges

• Trauma, PTSD & Adverse Experiences

• Depression, Grief & Life Transitions

• Self-Esteem, Stress & Identity Development

• Sand Tray Therapy (Level 2 Certified)

• Mindfulness-Based & Strength-Based Approaches

I provide counseling in English and Spanish — both in-person in Rockwall and via secure video throughout Texas.
