What Michelle does is emit brain simple unlock these memories, and experiences into the conscious mind. Think of it as these experiences locked behind a mental door, Michelle's brainwaves work as a key of sorts removing mental blocks and allowing these emotions to feed the mind.

“Even a minor event in the life of a child is an event of that child's world and thus a world event….Gaston Bachelard said that”





When describing my work I like to think of the butterfly effect, the idea of something so small branching off into progressively larger and larger consequences until the effects are monumental. Take something as natural as developing our knowledge and discovering are on sexuality. It’s only natural for children to become curious at that time, but we’ve had it drumed into us from a early age, how modesty must be practiced at all times, if a child is caught during this period and thereby scolded because of that, the shame could start a chain reaction that could stop us from developing fully as a person……







It’s the first domino, being tipped over. The Spark, that sets alight a fire. Everything that makes a person who they are, and why they will become is set in these formative moment.





My logic is simple really: the majority of issues, that stem from childhood, affect us to this day, if we can somehow talk to these children, teach them that’s it’s ok to carry around these worries. That’s it’s alright to be afraid, the effects can be wonderfully beneficial.







“....And that’s where my therapy comes into place, because the children we were. the small vulnerable ids that we grew from. Are still with us, Living in our collective unconscious manifesting itself as that little voice in the back of our head...What I do is simply bring it forward.



I suppose I’m fortunate in a way, I had something of a quiet childhood, I inherited my fathers green eyes and blond hair but my mother’s tall statue around 5’8 raised in dusseldorf in Germany (No matter how many years I spend in this country I can never shake the accent) My mother was distant but my father was more then accommodating to me….I should be considered fortunate as he was a power identifier, one that served as a recruiter for the english mutant school. He knew I manifested before before I was even aware of it. No doubt if he didn’t my power would have exploded out of me, effecting any number of child or even one of my parents with catastrophic results.



Once I completed my education, I quickly set about getting my degree in child psychology...That was always the plan. I learned pretty quickly, that my power, while the idea of using it for some practical joke….This power in particularly was not meant to be abused. It could help so many people and it was my responsibility to make sure that I do.



So, after graduating with my degree in psychology. I made my services available to Bellefonte, and to my surprise they agreed to let me be apart of their school. This isn’t something I take lightly, to take a risk on such an experimental treatment….



I won’t take that for granted
