About Michelle
Michelle Homa is a Michigan-licensed social worker, LMSW, with 24 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, depression, grief, and anger. She also supports people managing life changes and those in the LGBT community.
Her approach is straightforward and practical. She helps people name what triggers their anger and frustration. Conversations focus on clearer communication, managing intense moments, and rebuilding trust in relationships. Sessions include problem-solving and learning concrete skills to respond differently over time.
Michelle draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood and trauma-related concerns. She helps people recognize patterns that keep them stuck, such as avoidance, rumination, or control struggles. Work may include noticing physical signs of escalation, practicing short grounding strategies, and trying new ways to speak up without escalating.
She places emphasis on real-world coping that fits daily life. That can mean short check-ins about stress, planning responses to triggering situations, or practicing a different reaction between sessions. The goal is clearer thinking and fewer explosive moments, not perfection.
Michelle has spent two decades helping adults manage longstanding relationship problems, grief, and the emotional fallout of change. She accepts international clients and conducts work in English.

How her approaches translate to online work
Michelle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on mood, trauma, and behavior patterns. One common approach is cognitive-behavioral work, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral changes to reduce anger and anxiety. This is useful for work-related stress and daily frustration.Another approach is trauma-informed care that attends to past hurts and how they shape current reactions. That work looks at triggers, physical responses, and gradual strategies to tolerate strong feelings. It can help when anger is linked to old wounds or ongoing interpersonal strain.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Michelle works collaboratively to match methods to a person's goals, needs, and comfort. She will discuss options and adjust plans as a client learns what helps most.
