Education. Community. Conversation.
A space for thoughtful, evidence-based conversations about panic, anxiety, and mental health — both in person and online
About Us
The Collective is a community-based extension of Michelle Stiles’ work as a therapist — created to bring education, collaboration, and connection beyond the therapy room.
This is not therapy.
But it is a space for:
• Live educational workshops
• In-person community gatherings
• Therapist-led book clubs
• Professional networking events
• Collaborative lectures
• Virtual trainings and webinars
Everything we host is grounded in evidence-based information and designed to feel thoughtful, welcoming, and real.
The Community Lounge
Located at Salt City Holistic Health
202 Walton Street, Suite 203
Syracuse, NY
The Community Lounge is our in-person gathering space designed for intimate, intentional events.
It hosts:
• Therapist-led book clubs
• Small group wellness offerings
• Educational lectures
• Networking gatherings
• Collaborative professional events
• Community discussions
The space was created to feel grounded and calm — somewhere conversations can unfold without feeling rushed or clinical.
Meet Michelle and her dog Reba. Michelle has a passion to bring connection over competition in the business space locally and just tries to be a good human being and neighbor. Reba does all of this naturally and loves connecting with guests and tennis balls.
Michelle is also a licensed therapist specializing in OCD and panic. If you’re looking for therapy services you can learn more here.

Not local? You can still participate.
Let’s Work Together
