About Michelle
Michelle Price is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Virginia who helps people facing family stress, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, and mood concerns. She also supports clients dealing with ADHD, grief, addictions, parenting strain, relationship and intimacy issues, and career or life changes. Michelle draws on straightforward, practical methods in sessions.
She favors cognitive behavioral techniques that break down problems into workable steps. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current struggles, and trauma-focused work when past events are still causing distress.
Background and approach
With 14 years of experience, Michelle has worked across community mental health settings in roles from outpatient care to crisis services and therapeutic day treatment. That background shaped a pragmatic approach to therapy and a comfort with complex, overlapping concerns such as co-morbidity and disruptive mood symptoms. Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person.
Michelle aims to teach tools that people can use outside of sessions to manage stress, regulate mood, and improve relationships. She keeps explanations simple and focuses on what will help most in daily life. People who choose Michelle can expect clear goals, regular check-ins on progress, and a mix of skill-building and supportive listening.
She offers sessions in English and practices as an LPC in Virginia.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current reactions and bonds, and it helps with trust, intimacy, and family stress by identifying patterns and trying new daily behaviors. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and habits, which is useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD challenges, and mood regulation. Trauma-focused therapy concentrates on processing past events and reducing their impact on daily life through gradual, supported steps.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative decision can shift over time as progress is tracked and needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video sessions let people read facial cues and work in real time, phone calls use less bandwidth and can be easier when movement is needed, and chat or messaging can serve as brief check-ins or a way to practice skills between meetings. These options give flexibility for scheduling, regular follow-up, and steady application of tools learned in therapy.
