About Michele

Michele Heyman is a licensed counselor practicing with 19 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, self esteem struggles, career questions, and life transitions. Michele works with concerns including trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, and compassion fatigue. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

Her style is direct and practical. Michele tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs. She encourages motivated clients who want to make changes and will be open and honest during sessions. Michele aims to build confidence and stronger communication skills while addressing patterns that cause distress.

She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters and take small steps toward those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behavior patterns. Mindfulness and Client-Centered approaches keep sessions focused on what the person is experiencing right now and what they want to change.

Michele has worked with people from many backgrounds, including first responders, nurses, and law enforcement. Her experience includes helping with family of origin issues, blended family concerns, communication problems, and divorce or separation. She also supports those dealing with body image, codependency, guilt and shame, and infidelity.

She holds LPCC and LPC credentials and practices in Texas. Michele presents herself as a generally grateful, happy person who honors the courage it takes to seek change. If someone is ready to work toward a more fulfilling life, she offers a tailored, collaborative path forward.

Approaches that guide online work and goals

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It can assist with anxiety, low mood, and motivation problems by focusing on meaningful action rather than symptom elimination. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact; it involves trying new behavior patterns and testing unhelpful beliefs to reduce anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating-related concerns. Client-Centered Therapy places the person's experience at the center of sessions, using empathic listening and collaboration to build self-understanding and resilience.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and life situation. That means checking in and adjusting strategies over time so the plan matches what actually helps.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks or between shifts. Some approaches, like brief skill practice from CBT or value-driven homework from ACT, translate well to remote sessions and can be used to keep momentum between meetings.
