About Michelle
Michelle Uribe is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, licensed in California with 11 years of professional experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, grief, anger, depression, ADHD, and other mood and social challenges.
She uses a client-focused approach that centers on practical help. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Michelle adapts what she does to each person rather than following a single method every time.
Michelle has worked in both school and clinical settings. That background shapes how she approaches problems that affect daily life, such as managing frustration at work or dealing with recurring arguments at home. She draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address those issues rather than relying on one fixed model.
In a typical session she talks through what’s happening now, the patterns that keep repeating, and small changes someone can try between meetings. She also addresses related concerns like attachment issues, codependency, blended family challenges, and social anxiety when they tie into the immediate problem.
Michelle aims for clear steps people can use to reduce reactivity, rebuild damaged communication, and handle stressful changes. Her approach puts practical coping skills and straightforward conversation first.

How evidence-based methods translate to online work
Michelle uses common evidence-based therapeutic techniques in clear, practical ways. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and shifting those patterns so stress and anger no longer escalate as quickly. This helps with persistent worry, workplace frustration, and repeated arguments.Another useful approach emphasizes behavior change and skills practice. It involves learning specific coping strategies - breathing, timed breaks, communication scripts - and practicing them between sessions to reduce reactivity and build new habits.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Michelle treats this as a collaborative process. She will review goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what is working and what feels manageable for the person seeking help.
