About Michelle
Michelle keeps sessions straightforward and down-to-earth. She creates a calm space where clients can talk about upsetting thoughts and strong emotions without judgment. Conversations focus on practical steps people can try between sessions.
Her background includes five years focused on therapy work, building experience supporting people through life changes and caregiving strain. Michelle also addresses aging and geriatric concerns, attachment questions, and family of origin issues when they come up in therapy.
She uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs, drawing on client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral ideas, and goal-focused strategies. That mix helps with things like managing anger, shifting unhelpful thinking, and setting realistic steps when life feels overwhelming.
People often come for help with communication problems, control issues, isolation or loneliness, and finding purpose after major changes. Michelle also supports those coping with addiction concerns, hoarding, guilt and shame, and forgiveness work. She works at the pace each person needs.
To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on therapist availability. Michelle practices in Florida and conducts work in English.

How Michelle’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy is about following the client’s lead and listening closely to what matters most. It helps when someone needs a respectful space to sort emotions and decide next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and suggests simple experiments to test and change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, low mood, and anger control.Finding the right approach is a shared process. Michelle will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those aims. She adjusts techniques over time so sessions stay useful and relevant to daily life.
If you want online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. The practical benefits often include easier fit into a busy schedule, fewer trips to an office, and the ability to check in from a quieter place. Online work can make brief check-ins or regular weekly sessions easier to keep when life is hectic, and it supports applying skills in real time between meetings.
