Hello, my name is Michelle Smith. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas. I have been a licensed counselor for 10 years, during which I have worked with a variety of clients in different settings. My experience includes working with clients who have depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders. I have worked with clients who have experienced or are experiencing trauma, grief, family issues, relationship issues, anger management, and substance use.
I believe that all people possess the ability to change and I will provide you with unconditional positive regard and support as you strive to reach your goals. My style of counseling combines solution focused, client centered methods as well as techniques from CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy).

Michelle has been so supportive and helpful throughout my therapy journey. I have had a few therapists in the past, and I knew the therapist-patient rapport/relationship was an important part of therapy, but I didn't realize how much of a positive impact this aspect could have in my life. Highly recommend her! She is very flexible and understanding with your needs and schedules. I have never felt judged by her -- I look forward to our sessions, and overall am very very very happy and thankful to have her as my therapist!

Michelle has been an amazing therapist. I have done therapy face to face before coming to BetterHelp and have loved the flexibility and availability that Michelle has to work around a chaotic schedule.
I have always recommended therapy to my friends and now BetterHelp is a part of that recommendation.

When I first joined a BetterHelp, I didn't connect with counselors right away. I continued to search and I found Michelle who has been a perfect match for me. She has been a wonderful source for support and encouragement. She gives me activities and worksheets that I have learned a lot from. I'm very grateful to have her as part of my recovery team. I've noticed a significant improvement in my mental health since working with her.

Michelle is amazing. All the methods she suggested worked like a charm. She really gets to know and understand the situation. I couldn’t have been more lucky to get Michelle as my therapist.

Michelle truly listens to you with clear aim for things to be better. She does this thing where she'll rephrase what you said to her in her own words, to which you can agree or disagree with- it's refreshing if you have people that regularly talk over you without listening to what you have to say.
