About Michelle
Michelle Davis is a licensed clinical social worker in Michigan with 13 years of experience. She uses practical, collaborative methods to help people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting pressures, and life transitions. She blends straightforward talk with tools from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy.
Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small, usable steps to feel better. Michelle centers the person’s strengths and experience when planning each session.
Background and approach
Her work addresses a wide range of concerns including addictions, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, anger, self-esteem, and career stress. She also supports people facing ADHD, bipolar disorder, and complex family dynamics like adoption, blended family challenges, and caregiver strain.
Michelle draws on additional perspectives such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and the Gottman Method to shape conversations about communication and connection. She tailors the plan to each person’s needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. In sessions, she asks questions, offers practical strategies, and checks in about what works.
New clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Michelle aims to make therapy a gradual, doable process where steady progress is the goal.

Online support
How these approaches are used in online care
Michelle often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior and then try small experiments to change them. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many everyday worries.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions begin with the person's experience and priorities. That approach supports people who need a steady, respectful space to sort through decisions, grief, or relationship concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Michelle will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they choose methods and adjust them based on progress and feedback to keep work practical and relevant.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is good for a deeper conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports quick check-ins or brief skill practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family time, or busy days while keeping focus on steady, manageable steps.
