About Michelle
Michelle Price is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 14 years of experience. She works with adults on issues such as anger, anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship concerns. Michelle also addresses trauma and abuse, parenting strain, ADHD, grief, and mood disorders.
Her style draws mainly from cognitive behavioral therapy, which she uses because it is practical and easy to understand. She also uses attachment-based ideas when relationships are central to the concern. Trauma-focused approaches are part of her toolkit for people who have experienced significant harm.
Michelle's background is in community mental health. She has managed outpatient, crisis, intensive in-home, and therapeutic day treatment services. That work exposed her to a wide range of needs and behaviors across different life stages.
In sessions she focuses on clear skills and steps people can use between meetings. That can mean tools for managing intense feelings, patterns that fuel anger, or strategies for handling workplace or family tensions. She adapts techniques from DBT and other models when they help move a person forward.
Michelle supports people who are coping with life changes, caregiver stress, and issues like guilt, shame, or problems with intimacy. She also works with those facing co-occurring concerns such as addictions, bipolar disorder, and disruptive mood symptoms. The emphasis is on practical, usable practices that fit everyday life.
How her approaches translate to online work
Michelle commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based approaches. CBT focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns that keep problems active and on practicing new skills to respond differently. Attachment-based work looks at relationship patterns and how past hurts affect current interactions, which can help with anger linked to closeness or trust issues.She also brings in trauma-focused techniques when past events are driving symptoms. Those methods help people process distressing memories and learn coping skills for strong emotions. Choosing which approach or combination to use is a collaborative decision. The therapist and client review goals, try methods, and adjust as progress is seen.
Confirm the exact online session formats before booking, as specific formats were not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also supports continuing care after in-person treatment and lets people practice skills in their everyday settings.
