Michelle Brown

Michelle Brown is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience helping people who feel stuck by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and life changes. She works with individuals who struggle with ADHD, social anxiety, and isolation or loneliness, offering straightforward help for day-to-day overwhelm. Michelle aims to make therapy feel understandable and practical for people juggling busy lives.

Her sessions are collaborative and down-to-earth. She listens for what matters most and focuses on skills that can be used right away. That might mean learning ways to manage panic, practicing tools for mood swings, or finding small changes that reduce daily stress.

Over her career Michelle has drawn on several evidence-based methods. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and acceptance-based strategies to build tolerance for difficult feelings. She also incorporates attachment-informed ideas to improve close relationships and elements of dialectical behavior therapy for emotional regulation.

Michelle brings a calm, steady approach when people are grieving or coping with chronic illness and pain. She helps people name their values, set realistic steps, and reduce shame and self-blame. Sessions emphasize practical progress rather than quick fixes.

Located in Texas, Michelle offers therapy in English. She asks prospective clients to use the Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that fits their needs. The goal is steady, manageable change that fits into everyday life.

How Michelle’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for depression, anxiety, and finding direction after life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that worsen anxiety or low mood. It suits panic, social anxiety, and everyday worry. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and trust, which can help with loneliness and interpersonal difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michelle collaborates with each person to test methods and adjust based on what feels most helpful. That means trying skills, reviewing what worked, and shifting strategies together as goals change.

The practical benefit of online therapy is fitting sessions into a busy week. Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are offered. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments during transitions, try short check-in meetings when needed, and practice skills between sessions in real life. Licensed professionals can guide clients through ACT, CBT, or attachment-focused work in ways that fit a person’s schedule and goals.
