About Michelle
Michelle Weber is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in New York. She focuses on helping people who are facing anxiety, stress, relationship strain, and mood challenges. Michelle uses clear, practical steps so clients can start feeling steadier right away.
She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy and elements of the Gottman Method to help people improve emotional connection and communication in relationships.
Background and approach
Mindfulness and narrative work are mixed in to help clients notice patterns and create kinder self-stories. Michelle spent the early part of her clinical work in both independent practice and community health settings. That experience shaped a down-to-earth approach that combines solution-focused skills with attention to strengths.
She keeps sessions goal-oriented and tailored to each person’s pace. In sessions she helps people break cycles that worsen anxiety, manage panic symptoms, and work through grief, attachment concerns, or problems with intimacy and communication. She also supports those coping with postpartum depression, seasonal mood changes, and issues around body image and self-esteem.
Michelle aims to provide a consistent, caring environment where people can try new tools and make gradual changes. If her style sounds like a fit, the next step is a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first conversation.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Michelle commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety and then practicing small, concrete changes to reduce symptoms. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name emotions, and it guides conversations that rebuild connection and address recurring relationship patterns.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about your goals and preferences, try a few techniques, and adjust the plan as you go. Clients are invited to give feedback so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversations and practicing communication skills. Phone sessions work when a lower bandwidth option or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let clients send updates, ask questions between sessions, or check in on homework in a way that fits busy days. These options help fit therapy into work, family life, and travel without needing to commute.
