Michelle Burdick

Michelle Burdick is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and life transitions. She uses clear, practical talk to help people name what matters and take small steps forward. Michelle also supports those dealing with grief, depression, self-esteem concerns, career questions, and decisions about life purpose.

She draws on several therapeutic approaches to match the person in front of her. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Mindfulness techniques help slow strong reactions and notice what’s happening in the body and mind. Solution-Focused and Motivational Interviewing methods are used to set concrete goals and build momentum.

Michelle’s background includes work in human resources, which informs her support for career-related concerns like job searching, interviewing, and resume preparation. That practical experience complements counseling work aimed at shifting confidence and workplace behavior.

Her work is straightforward and goal-oriented. Sessions often involve setting small, achievable steps between meetings and checking what did and didn’t work. She helps people break problems into specific parts they can act on.

Michelle has three years of counseling experience and offers services in English. International clients are accepted, and she asks new clients to confirm session options before booking. To begin, clients use the site’s Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Michelle often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes that reduce stress and anger. CBT sessions typically include setting clear homework goals and tracking results between meetings.

She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and build awareness of bodily signals. These practices can help with anxiety, anger, and grief by offering tools to pause before acting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and suggest which methods to start with. Clients and therapist collaborate and adjust methods based on what helps most.

The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into a busy life. It can reduce commute time, make it simpler to attend brief check-ins around a workday, and let people use practices they learn in their everyday setting. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and mindfulness exercises for remote sessions so people leave with practical steps to use between meetings.
