Dr. Michelle Beaupre

Dr. Michelle Beaupre is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing anger, anxiety, stress, and mood challenges. She supports those dealing with trauma, addiction, grief, relationship strain, and problems tied to parenting and family life. Her style is calm and direct, aimed at practical change rather than long lectures.

She uses clear, evidence-based methods to address day-to-day problems and deeper wounds. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful patterns, learning new coping skills, and practicing changes that fit real life. Michelle blends talk therapy with mindful practices and goal-focused tools so people leave sessions with something to use that week.

Her background includes six years of clinical experience and work with a range of concerns such as bipolar disorder, ADHD, eating issues, dissociation, and substance use. She holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential in California, which is shown as LCSW. That training informs her practical approach to treatment.

In the room she aims to be straightforward and compassionate. Clients who come for anger-related work often begin by learning grounding and emotion-regulation skills. From there they move into identifying triggers and changing reactions so daily life feels more manageable.

People who want to start are encouraged to consider what they hope to change and bring that to the first conversation. Michelle uses a mix of cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to support steady progress over time.

How Michelle Uses Evidence-Based Methods Online

Michelle commonly draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in online work. CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors so anger and anxiety respond to new ways of thinking. DBT teaches emotion-regulation skills, distress-tolerance tools, and ways to improve communication under stress.

She also uses elements of EMDR for those processing trauma when appropriate. EMDR involves structured processing of distressing memories to reduce their emotional intensity and help people move forward from past events.

Finding the right approach is part of the initial process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

If you are interested in online sessions, confirm current session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Online work can make attending sessions easier around busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness practices and coping tools in the moments they are most useful.
