Our History

Founded in 2022 in honor of Michelle—whose vision was to create opportunities for individuals to rewrite their lives—Michelle’s Safe Place was born out of love, loss, and the belief that everyone deserves a safe space. Michelle understood the quiet battles so many face, and she dreamed of a space where mental health was not a privilege, but a right; where conversations were met with compassion, not judgment; and where hope was always within reach.

Today, we carry that vision forward by providing accessible mental health support, building communities of understanding, and empowering individuals to reclaim their stories. We know that mental health is the foundation of a fulfilling life, and we are committed to breaking down barriers, ending stigma, and walking alongside each person on their journey toward peace. Every program, every connection, and every act of kindness is a step toward the world Michelle dreamed of—a world where no one feels alone in their struggles and everyone has the chance to thrive.
