About Michelle
Michelle Goehring is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Louisiana with 12 years of clinical experience. She offers straightforward help for common problems like stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and issues around eating, addiction, identity, and self-esteem.
Michelle focuses on identifying what's causing the most strain right now. She and the client map out practical steps to manage symptoms and daily problems. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on skills people can use between meetings.
Her approach draws from several evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness. Those methods are used to address thinking patterns, behavior habits, and emotional regulation in ways that fit day-to-day life.
Michelle also brings experience working with concerns linked to body image, communication problems, family of origin issues, and substance use. She discusses coping tools for sleep trouble, panic, bipolar mood patterns, and life changes like separation or serious illness.
People who prefer clear steps, skill practice, and a practical focus on current problems may find her style useful. The first sessions typically look at what is most urgent and set short-term goals to track progress.
BHow sessions work
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and then choose actions that align with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that keep problems going, which often helps with panic, mood swings, and sleep issues. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will review your goals, symptoms, and preferences during early sessions and suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is tracked.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it simpler to practice skills in the actual environments where problems arise, such as at home or during a break at work. Licensed professionals adapt exercises and homework to the online setting so the same practical work happens across formats.
