About Michelle
Michelle Taft Webb is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, low self-esteem, and depression. She also supports those facing relationship concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger, and career or life-change stress. Michelle practices in Texas and offers services in English.
Michelle draws on 12 years of experience working across community mental health settings. She has worked with people in mental health and substance addiction contexts, as well as in inpatient and outpatient environments. That background informs a practical, down-to-earth approach to therapy.
In sessions she focuses on what is happening now and what can change. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and to try new behaviors. Mindfulness techniques and motivational interviewing help clients build small, steady habits and stay engaged in the work.
She also uses existential and narrative approaches to help people find meaning and reshape the stories they tell about themselves. Those approaches can help when people are wrestling with life purpose, midlife transitions, or issues rooted in family of origin and abandonment.
Michelle adapts plans to each person’s needs and refers elsewhere when a client needs services beyond her scope. Her work often addresses additional concerns such as caregiver stress, communication problems, domestic violence, HIV/AIDS, and substance use. Prospective clients who prefer international scheduling can note that she accepts international clients.
How Michelle’s approaches translate to online therapy
Michelle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep issues because it focuses on concrete steps and experiments.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to teach attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and improve focus. Mindfulness can be useful for managing cravings in addiction, lowering stress, and improving sleep. Narrative Therapy is another approach she draws on to help people rewrite the stories that shape their choices and sense of self, which can be useful for life purpose, identity, and family-of-origin issues.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Michelle will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision can shift over time as needs change and progress is made.
Confirm the session formats available before booking so you know what will be offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow a quicker check-in on a lunch break, or let someone choose sessions that do not require video. Ask during scheduling about options that suit your routine and comfort.
