About Michelle
Michelle Brown is a licensed clinical social worker with 14 years of experience helping people manage anxiety, stress, depression, and major life changes. She speaks English and practices in Texas. Her style is straightforward and caring, aimed at making therapy feel manageable for someone juggling everyday pressures.
She focuses on practical coping skills and small, achievable steps. Sessions often include ways to reduce panic, manage mood symptoms, and handle the overwhelm that comes with grief or chronic illness.
Background and approach
She also supports people who are navigating ADHD challenges, loneliness, or questions about life purpose. Michelle combines several evidence-informed approaches to match each person’s needs. She may use cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thinking patterns, acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values, and elements of dialectical behavior therapy for emotion regulation.
Motivational interviewing and attachment-informed thinking also shape her work when they fit someone's situation. Her sessions emphasize collaboration. She listens to what is most pressing, offers clear strategies, and checks in about what is or isn’t working.
That practical orientation helps people apply what they learn between sessions. People who come to her often want to reduce anxiety, move through grief, or find more calm in daily life. Michelle aims to create a steady, nonjudgmental space where clients can practice new skills and build resilience over time.
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on helping people notice what matters most and take small actions toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It can help with anxiety, life transitions, and finding direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical ways to reduce symptoms like panic or low mood by changing thoughts and actions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, emphasizes emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that are useful for intense moods and panic attacks.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That means trying tools, seeing what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, skill practice, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while using approaches like ACT, CBT, and DBT in a way that works for the individual.
