About Michelle
Michelle Price is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing family conflict, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, grief, addiction, ADHD, stress, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, and young adult issues.
Michelle uses clear, practical methods in sessions. She draws mainly on cognitive behavioral therapy, but will use techniques from attachment-based work, dialectical behavior approaches, and trauma-focused methods when they help. Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings as well as talking through current problems.
Her background is rooted in community mental health. She has worked in outpatient, crisis, intensive in-home, therapeutic day treatment, and program management roles. That experience means she has spent time helping people from varied backgrounds and life situations.
Michelle describes her main orientation as cognitive behavioral therapy because it is straightforward and adaptable. She also uses material from attachment-based family therapy and trauma-focused approaches when appropriate. This gives a mix of skills training, thought and behavior work, and attention to relationship patterns.
In practical terms, expect a collaborative conversation that balances problem-solving with emotion work. Michelle asks about what is most pressing, tries interventions that fit your daily life, and adjusts methods when something is not helping. She speaks English and practices in Virginia as an LPC.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Michelle commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment-based approaches. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill practice. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems like low self-esteem. Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect emotions and connection, and it can be useful for relationship problems, intimacy issues, caregiver stress, and family-related concerns.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your needs, goals, and preferences and suggest methods to try. If something does not fit, the approach is adjusted together so sessions remain relevant to everyday challenges like starting a job, moving, or changing relationships.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around study, work, or commuting. They also allow for shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require video when bandwidth or screen time is an issue. Expect practical planning around how sessions will work and what to try between meetings to support change.
