About Michelle
Michelle Brown is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, ADHD, and major life changes. She also focuses on issues such as chronic pain and illness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, and questions about life purpose.
Michelle helps people talk through what feels stuck or overwhelming. She uses straightforward, evidence-based methods to build skills for managing emotions and day-to-day challenges. Sessions typically include practical tools and clear steps to try between meetings.
Her approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy among other methods. That means clients learn to notice difficult thoughts without acting on them, test patterns that cause distress, and practice new ways of coping. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns.
Michelle aims to make sessions collaborative. She works with each person to set goals and choose strategies that fit their life and values. Conversations are direct and focused on what someone needs now, whether that is managing panic, reducing social anxiety, or finding meaning after a major change.
Her background includes long-term clinical work in Texas settings. Michelle speaks English and does not take international clients. Before booking, people should confirm the current session options and formats available.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small action toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and questions about life purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic and social anxiety. It usually involves homework and skills practice between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and stabilizing relationships in daily life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Michelle will review a person’s goals, daily routine, and what has or hasn’t helped before recommending methods. The choice of tools and techniques is collaborative and can shift as needs change.
Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into work or care schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to practice skills between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and DBT exercises to work well in remote conversations and help clients test changes in their everyday environments.
