About Michael
Michael Brackett is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Colorado who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, depression, and questions of identity and purpose. He speaks plain language and aims to make therapy understandable and practical for someone juggling family and daily demands.
Michael's style is warm and exploratory, with attention to feelings, patterns, and real-life changes. He uses a mix of relational and depth approaches to help people reconnect with what matters to them.
Background and approach
Sessions often look at attachment and communication habits, how past experiences shape current reactions, and small steps that shift daily life. The Gottman Method appears among his approaches and can be part of how he helps with relationship concerns. Michael draws on emotionally focused and Jungian ideas to help people name painful emotions and rediscover meaning.
He also brings in sensing the body and noticing routine responses so change is not only understood but felt. Conversations are collaborative and grounded in everyday choices that make life easier to manage. With 15 years of experience, Michael blends teaching and clinical work to help people who are tired of repeating the same patterns.
He supports work on issues such as addiction, grief, intimacy worries, parenting strain, ADHD, career shifts, and midlife questions. The emphasis is on practical change - small, steady steps that shift how life feels. People who choose him can expect straightforward talk, attention to emotions, and concrete tools to try between sessions.
Michael welcomes clients who want a thoughtful, reflective approach that connects feelings, relationships, and life direction.

Online support
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns shape current bonds and reactions. Online work can help people notice clinginess, avoidance, or mistrust and practice new ways of connecting or asking for support. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying and shifting core emotional responses that fuel relationship pain. Through conversation and guided exercises, clients learn to name emotions and make different choices in interactions.Choosing the right method is part of the process and Michael treats it as a collaboration. He listens to your goals, reviews what has or hasn’t worked before, and suggests ways of working together that fit your needs. Over a few sessions you and he can decide whether to emphasize emotion work, attachment patterns, or other depth approaches.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face-to-face without travel, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and coaching-style support possible between sessions. These options help clients fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between meetings.
