About Michella
Michella Rahming is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with five years of experience supporting adults through anxiety and other life challenges. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth work that helps people manage symptoms and build healthier routines. Her approach centers on listening first and tailoring tools to each person's needs.
She uses client-centered methods to create a respectful space where people feel heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her work when patterns of thinking and behavior are getting in the way.
Background and approach
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and mindfulness skills are included for emotion regulation and stress management. Michella has helped people facing addiction and recovery, grief, trauma, relationship strain, and work-related stress. She also addresses issues tied to identity, prejudice, and multicultural concerns.
Many clients bring concerns about sleep, anger, self-esteem, or life transitions, and she focuses on clear steps to make daily life more manageable. Her background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Florida A&M University and a Master’s Degree in Counseling from Argosy University in Atlanta, Georgia. She holds LPC credentials in Georgia and Alabama.
Those training paths inform her practical focus on short-term coping tools and longer-term personal growth. Sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, and text messaging. People are encouraged to begin by describing immediate priorities so sessions can focus on what matters most now.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful partnership. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects concerns back, and encourages self-directed change. This approach helps when someone needs a space to make sense of feelings and decide next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple strategies like tracking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve sleep. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for regulating strong emotions and improving interpersonal interactions; it is useful for people who feel overwhelmed by intense reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the person's needs. That collaborative process can be adjusted over time as progress is made and priorities shift.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can work well when bandwidth is limited, chat can be used for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family, and daily life.
