About Michael

Michael Ecuyer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with 33 years of experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and offers practical coaching-style support for people wanting concrete change.

He frames much of his work like life coaching while using therapy skills. Sessions often focus on clearing obstacles that keep someone from meeting personal goals. He commonly helps people manage fear, overwhelming stress, relationship disappointments, and problems that come up in parenting and blended family life.

Michael has long experience with a wide range of concerns. He helps people dealing with depression, grief, addiction, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related difficulties. He also addresses career strain, caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, and communication or commitment problems that affect daily functioning.

His approach draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, emotionally-focused work, mindfulness, and psychodynamic ideas. That mix is used to identify patterns, try practical behavior changes, and improve how people connect in their relationships.

Michael offers sessions that can include phone, text, and sometimes video when that suits the client. He works in a straightforward, goal-oriented way intended to help people implement changes and manage life's pressures more effectively.

BHow sessions work

How his approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people set goals. Online sessions using this approach are often about clarifying what matters and planning practical steps to reach those goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and tests small changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety or stress. That work can fit into short homework tasks and follow-up conversations suited to remote sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean combining approaches or adjusting the pace as progress is made.

Michael's biography notes phone, text, and sometimes video as ways he has worked. Confirm the current session formats before booking to ensure they meet your needs. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people try different rhythms of work while keeping the focus on practical steps and relationship changes.
