About Michelle
Michelle Edmond is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with five years focused on direct therapy work. She helps people cope with stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, depression, and life changes. Michelle speaks English and practices in Florida.
She uses straightforward conversation to identify what is causing distress. Sessions look at immediate concerns such as managing strong emotions, parenting decisions, or adjusting after a big change. She also addresses longer term patterns tied to family of origin, attachment, and sense of purpose.
Michelle draws on several practical approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy guides the conversation by focusing on a person’s priorities and goals. Solution-Focused and Narrative tools are used to find small, workable steps and reframe personal stories when that helps.
People who worry about caregiving, aging-related stress, substance use, or isolation will find a familiar focus in her work. She also helps with communication and control issues, guilt, shame, and forgiveness. Sessions aim to be direct and problem-focused when needed while also exploring the background of recurring concerns.
Michelle asks for practical goals at the start of work together. That could be reducing panic, improving a parenting routine, or setting boundaries with a family member. She encourages clear next steps so people leave a session with something to try between meetings.
BHow sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online work can fit
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's goals and priorities. It relies on listening and reflecting so people can decide what matters most and set practical aims. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions; it helps with anxiety, depression, and managing anger through specific exercises and behavior changes. Motivational Interviewing helps people weigh pros and cons and find internal reasons to change, which is often useful for substance concerns or when motivation feels stuck.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That choice is collaborative and may change as issues evolve or as people test what helps most.
Confirm the session formats before booking because the profile does not list specific online options. When online sessions are available, they can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or avoiding travel time on a workday. Some approaches like CBT translate well to short skill-focused sessions with homework, while Motivational Interviewing and Narrative work often take a few sessions to develop momentum. Ask about how sessions are scheduled and billed so therapy can be arranged around work, caregiving, and other daily responsibilities.
