About Michael

Michael Curry is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Louisiana with 10 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on issues such as anger, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and stress. Michael also supports people facing addiction, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, and career or life-change challenges.

He offers practical, skills-based work. Sessions focus on clear goals and steps people can try between meetings. He draws from client-centered techniques to listen and reflect, and from cognitive behavioral methods to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness practices and elements of the Gottman Method are used where they fit the goals.

Michael has a background that includes military service and ministry work. That experience shapes how he talks about values, boundaries, and communication. He has worked in mental health rehabilitation centers and a hospital setting, and has assisted individuals and couples in a church context.

In sessions he may combine short exercises, direct feedback, and question-based reflection. He can help people develop anger management skills, handle relationship conflict, and reduce ongoing stress. He also works on issues such as self-esteem, coping with trauma, and substance use concerns.

Getting started is a straightforward process. Prospective clients complete a matching questionnaire and schedule a first appointment. Fees vary by location and the service uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How Michael Uses CBT, Client-Centered Work, and Mindfulness Online

Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach focus on clear conversation, helping people name feelings and priorities so they can set practical goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, emotions, and actions. Delivered online, CBT often includes homework such as tracking triggers, testing unhelpful beliefs, and trying new responses to anger or anxiety in daily life.

Mindfulness therapy adds brief attention and breathing practices to calm the body and increase awareness. These exercises can be introduced during a session and practiced between meetings to reduce reactivity and improve focus.

Finding the right mix of these approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide what to try first based on their goals and preferences. That may mean focusing on thought patterns, relationship skills, or simple grounding practices.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. When arranged, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Discuss scheduling and session length during the initial matching and intake so sessions match daily routines and responsibilities.
