Michelle Chabot, LPC, helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. She creates a calm, listening space where clients can tell their story and set practical goals. Her work often centers on building self-esteem and improving relationships through small, steady steps.
Clients come with many concerns - depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, parenting stress, addiction, or questions about life direction. Michelle encourages clear, realistic goals and looks for immediate changes that matter in daily life. She emphasizes strength and resilience while addressing tough emotions like shame, anger, or isolation.
Michelle earned a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Professional Counseling. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado. Her background includes 12 years of service in the Air Force, and she draws on that experience when helping people navigate career shifts, relocation, and trauma-related stress.
Her clinical approach blends Cognitive-Behavioral ideas with Solution-Focused and Narrative techniques to reframe thoughts and create concrete plans. She also uses person-centered skills, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness practices to meet people where they are and support gradual change.
Sessions are collaborative and goal-directed. Michelle works with individuals, couples, families, children, and adolescents on issues such as communication, intimacy, infertility-related grief, and building confidence. She invites clients to identify what they want to achieve and partners with them to reach those goals.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Michelle uses a mix of approaches that aim to change unhelpful thinking, build practical solutions, and reframe personal stories. Cognitive-Behavioral ideas focus on identifying thought patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce distress and improve mood. Solution-Focused techniques prioritize small, achievable steps and the client’s strengths to create forward momentum.
Narrative methods invite people to tell and reshape the stories they carry about themselves and their relationships, which can improve self-esteem and reduce shame. Michelle blends these methods with motivational interviewing and mindfulness to support commitment and present-moment awareness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each client to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust those choices as progress is made. This helps ensure sessions stay practical and relevant rather than sticking to a single technique.
