About me
When I began my career change to the helping field, I chose to be educated as a community mental health professional to receive the training that would afford me the therapeutic resources for counseling those in my community. I have work experience with various socioeconomic status, clinical diagnosis and in treatment settings. I am extremely passionate about my work as a therapist and pride myself in connection. I genuinely care about people and always seek to establish a rapport with my client as quickly as possible. My work with young children has taught me to be patient with the connection process. I am grateful to report that my youngest client (age 9) to my young adult clients have all received the needed therapeutic support to reach their individual goals. Should client needs ever exceed my expertise they will be referred for the best possible therapeutic help. I have counseled young people with behavioral challenges in school and at home, with Asperger's Syndrome seeking to exceed deemed limitations, death of a parent, those identifying as LGBTQ, and those struggling with various life transitions.
I am a Board Certified National Certified Counselor, Licensed in Professional Counseling. My education and experience covers all aspects of the individual, family, and couple dynamics. I am Trauma certified, utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Motivational Interviewing therapeutic interventions.
I have over 9 years of experience and treat each client as a unique individual. I offer client specific treatment plans tailored to specific needs based on the client's chosen goals.
I look forward to connecting with your child for a solution to your therapeutic needs.

Great
She really cares and is very helpful
I’ve only met with her once but I was able to open up to her a lot in our time. She’s very thoughtful and realistic, and helped me get a good perspective on the issues I’m facing
Michelle is kind, wise and compassionate. She listens to what I say, and provide relevant, vital feedback and advice.

Michelle has been amazing to have on my team as I go through this self journey and growth step in my life. It is a huge help to have her and I'm very thankful for this opportunity on teencounseling.com to have met her.
Michelle, helped me greatly. Now I have some new tools in my toolbox that I will use daily. These few sessions gave me a new perspective on my life and hope for the future. Thank you so much.
Michelle is great! Very positive outlook and great listener. Looking forward to working with her further
Michelle waited until I was ready to really work at transforming my life. She gave me homework to help me understand my rights as a human being, how to set boundaries, and most of all, how to deal with my grief over losing my husband. There’s more work to be done, but I know with Michelle’s help, I’ll make it.
Michelle is amazing she listens and really interprets my feelings and gives me the best tools to help solve my problems. That is truly awesome. I am now able to solve my problems and not make the same mistakes twice. Michelle has help me clear a lot of things from my past up and to express how I feel more. I am in a amazing place now thank you Michelle!!
Michelle is such an amazing therapist! She gives me insight to my weekly issues and gives the most comforting advice to help ease my anxiety and stress on topics. I feel like I have the world on my side with her.
Michelle has been wonderful on my journey to healing. Compassionate, funny, great listener and gives great advice. I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me. She has been a God send and I’m very appreciative
Michelle is deep into her purpose and she is everthing a person needs to get to the bottom of their own situation in a very easygoing and peofessional manner.
Michelle is awesome. She is genuine, honest, and very discerning. She listens and offers practical solutions.
Michelle goes above and beyond and offers multiple means of communication with their clients. This is helpful as someone who is typically on the move.
It’s been great so far the insight has been hopeful allowing me to unpack how I feel and providing me techniques/ worksheets on how to set boundaries and how to respond and rise above. I’m enjoying this experience I’m really working on self and evolving
Michelle has been motivated and eager to help me. I’m learning a lot from our sessions
I enjoyed meeting with Michelle for the first time, I felt like she listened and was compassionate to understand and also thereafter expertise and ways of dissecting and seeing a clearer way to see an issue. I felt hear and cared for- to work through my struggles right now. Thank you!
Michelle has been wonderful. As a therapy newbie, I wasn't sure what I was looking for-but this has certainly exceeded my expectations. Michelle is insightful, practical and offers approaches/techniques that support my mental and emotional growth. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
Michelle engages with you and allows you to re think when reacting to catalytic factors that can be harmful to everyone involved . Learning to retrain the brain has given me reachable goals to see the brighter results
Michelle has a wonderful amount of optimistic energy and emotional awareness that has helped me navigate through one of the most challenging portions of my life - a rise to extreme professional success followed by absolute failure - and has helped remind me that I am the human that put myself in both situations in the first place. Since I began talking to her in 2021, she has been a wonderful resource for complicated thoughts and questions, personal understanding, and wonderful emotional support. I would recommend her to anyone that has gone through what I have. 10/10!
Michelle is a wonderful Therapist and I really enjoy working with her.
She is a true and real human and gives excellent feedback. I was not sure how online therapy would work, but some how she makes it easy to talk to her. She helped me through a hard transition in my life an I am forever grateful.
Michelle is supportive, kind, Intelligent and helpful
Michelle knows how to always keep a positive out look and is great at creating steps to reach your goals
❤️
Michelle is a rock start! Love her.
Michelle Webb, is absolutely amazing. She provides insight as well as understanding. I can truly say she has really been helping me with my current concerns. I am grateful for her expertise and listening ear.
Michelle is so patient with me. I look forward to my sessions with her every week.
Michelle is fantaStic and she knows what I need. She sends videos etc that I don’t always watch but she never stops trying.
Michelle has a way of putting you at ease immediately. You feel like you have known her forever. She is down to earth, direct and very positive. Everything I needed!
She was very responsive during our video session and pretty much had me figured out after just a few minutes.
Caring but firm. Gives honest advice and observations
Michelle Webb is a great therapist. She really insisted I tell my problems and how to deal with them. She has helped me overcome a mountain in my life I never knew I could climb.
Michelle makes me feel so comfortable and tells me what I need to hear.
Michelle is awesome, I am still very new to teen counseling after trying a local therapist in town who was not a good fit. Michelle made me feel very comfortable right off the bat. She is a pleasure to speak with and has already been a big help.
She’s incredible ✨
Michelle is very down to earth and straight to the point. She doesn’t beat around the bush and she doesn’t let you feel sorry for yourself. She is about changing your life for the better with good actions and better decisions.
Michelle is an excellent therapist and highly recommend her
I'm very grateful to Michelle for the tools she has shown me. She very quickly honed in on what I needed and when I resisted the path she suggested, she brought that up and helped me face myself. I'm excited and happy that at my tender age of 64, I have realised that I still need to heal as an Adult Child of an Alcoholic. I am positive about being able to do the work to achieve that healing.
I've only had 2 sessions with her so far and I feel very comfortable. She speaks that real and I appreciate that!
Happy with teen counseling, Convenience of speaking with someone in the comfort of my own home. I like how they matched me with someone that can relate to a lot of my issues
Very attentive! Able to engage but not seem over bearing or hard to read. Gives amazing projects and feedback for me to work on during the week. I highly recommend her!
Wonderful therapist very comforting
She is wise and listens in-between the lines.
I've been really grateful to work with Michelle. We've had both 1-on-1 and sessions as a pair, and Michelle has also given us lots of easy-to-reference resources. We absolutely feel comfortable and enjoy working with her
Michelle has been an incredible help to me. She offers so many helpful tools and she is compassionate. I felt comfortable opening up and in turn she has helped me heal and grow. Wonderful, thoughtful, and I highly recommend her.
Michelle is someone my son trusts and respects. She is changing his life. We are so glad she is on this journey with us.
Very nice. Very supportive. Will recommend
Michelle understands my needs and works with me through methods she knows will benefit me. It has been hard finding someone that is compatible with me, but Michelle is the perfect match. Every session ends with me feeling better than ever!
Michelle is inspirational and incredible. She understands exactly what I’m struggling with and gives me the best advice I’ve ever had. I always leave the video chats with a smile on my face and hope for a better future in my life.
Michelle has been wonderful, she's been an excellent listener and has created a safe place for me to feel comfortable opening up
Michelle is an excellent therapist, working with her immensely helped my daughter to go from a teen who kept to herself due to fear/anxieties, and now is more interactive with others, seeking more in person connections, and is more confident at school.
I’ve never vibed so hard with a therapist. I’m actually excited to begin using the tools she gave me to help manage my anxiety.
I went through two different therapist before finding one that works for me. And when I say I’ve been matched perfectly it’s an understatement. Michelle is very professional I love her therapy style. She’s very patient and understanding.. I was gonna quit after the first to and just give up hope. But honestly my life could not be any better with the help of Michelle. I appreciate her very very much.
Michelle is just amazing. A willing listener helping me shine a light on the dark spots in my life. So thankful for her and this platform making therapy accessible and easier
Michelle makes you feel good and gives you so many ways to improve your life. She's very professional and makes you feel safe to talk about everything. I highly recommend Michelle to everyone that needs a fresh start.
Michelle is amazing!
There have been times when I resisted attending a therapy session. However, by the end of a session I resisted, I was always glad that I attended. Michelle has a lot to do with that flip. She is so warm and fun and always “keeps it real”. Connecting with my counsellor is a non-negotiable for me and I definitely feel that we connect. I also feel that she is wholeheartedly invested in my growth, and this is apparent in various ways. For example: she always gives me her undivided attention; she is kind, compassionate and non-judgemental (essential traits for a therapist in my eyes); she readily shares her own experiences and knowledge with the hope of shedding insight and offering solutions; and she is immensely generous in sharing resources and exercises to support my goals and wellbeing. I found in Michelle not only a loving, supportive therapist, but also a trusted companion that is committed to help me navigate obstacles in my life with the goal of arriving at a healthier, happier place. Thank you, Michelle, for all you’ve done for me until now, and for being you!
Michelle is a fantastic therapist. She listens and offers viable advice.
She is wonderful and honest and gives me the attitude and answers and help that I need to hear!!
Michelle is a wonderful therapist who has provided timely, professional and compassionate support to my daughter. Many thanks Michelle. I would strongly recommend Michelle to friends and family.
Michelle is great!
Michelle is awesome! She is patient, always offers suggestions and has been incredible at helping me navigate my crazy life experiences
Michelle is great. She listens to me and my concerns. She does not beat around the bush and gives me practical advice/techniques to use that are actually helpful.
I love working with Michelle! She's a great listener, very transparent and gives great pep talks/affirmations. I always leave with concrete advice that truly helps me and her words stick with me. I've recommended her to three people since we began working together and I look forward to my healing and growth with her by my side!
Michelle is a great and understanding therapist! I’ve been doing better ever since I’ve started sessions with her.
Michelle is a kind spirit. She provided a lot of practical things that I can incorporate into my daily life. I was able to shift my mindset on a lot of things and heal areas of density. I appreciate her work and I am grateful I got to work with her for my first time in therapy.
I am finding Michelle to be patient with me. She is a good listener and responds very quickly to any updates. I appreciate the worksheets she sends to me, it allows me to remember to think about the work I want to do on myself between each session.
Michelle is amazing and has helped us so much! We've had a few therapists in the past, and Michelle has been the most effective. Talented mediator where both of us feel heard and are given actionable steps to improve our relationship. She is AMAZING!
She's great with knowing what you should be focusing on in your problems. Quick to understand the situation and doesn't force her opinions on you but suggests you useful resolutions to help your problems. She's a great listener and has a way make someone comfortable in spilling your soul to her. I'd highly recommend her especially to my LGBTQ's out there seeking for help. Best experience for me.
Michelle cares about helping you from the bottom of her heart. I can feel that and it is very healing to be in her presence. She is reliable and respectful. You can count on her to help you in a wise and professional manner. Thank you for helping me through my difficulties Michelle. God bless!
Michelle is great she makes me feel comfortable to speak. She isn't overbearing and let you work hrough things with minimal nudging but I also feel cared for
Michelle is a very helpful councillor; providing prompts, questions and alternative point of views outside of yourself. She uses worksheets to build positive habits and a change of mindset for long term solutions.
Michelle’s warm and welcoming presence makes you feel comfortable to share your inner world. From the first session with her, I felt very taken care of and comfortable to return for more. She’s attentive, experienced, and full of wisdom. I deeply appreciate her and her guidance.
I’ve only had one appointment with her but I felt so much better talking to her. I look forward to working out the things I need hep with when talking to her.
In the short time that I've worked with Michelle, I feel like I've been challenged to explore what really matters to me and to take an active role in shaping the life I want. Michelle puts an emphasis on connecting with me on a human level, which I feel enhances the therapeutic relationship and makes our sessions more fruitful. I would recommend Michelle to people who are curious about themselves and want to work on becoming a richer more developed version of themselves. Kindness and empathy are at the heart of Michelle's sessions, however, that does not mean that she will ignore any nonsense on your end--at the end of the day you are responsible for your growth.
Incredible!
You are the first counselor that has gave me homework and skills. I've been looking for someone like that for years. So happy to have found you
I have only had a few of sessions with Michelle, but she is amazing, and I look forward to booking my next session. She understands what I am going through as an LGBTQIA+ person, and has really good insight into relationship problems. I feel comfortable speaking to her as I would normally, which I was nervous about as I use many swear words, but I'm allowed to speak freely. She is very supportive but also tells it how it is, which honestly I need right now. If you are going through something I would highly recommend her, she has been a voice of reason, support, and understanding as I deal with the issues presented in front of me. Most importantly, she is so adaptable. She focuses on my needs even if they change day to day! I don't think I am an easy client, but she always responds to me promptly. She is awesome!
