About Michelle
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 20 years of experience, Michelle Coppins helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, career and life transitions, and grief. She works with concerns related to parenting, compassion fatigue, and LGBTQ issues as well as mood disorders. Sessions are conducted in English and informed by client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy.
Michelle frames counseling as a practical process. She asks questions to clarify what is troubling a person. Then she and the client look for new ways of thinking, behaving, and managing feelings. Sessions focus on skills that can be used beyond the therapy room.
People come to her for many reasons - divorce, an empty nest, a demanding new job, pregnancy or postpartum changes, or the death of a family member. She also supports those dealing with communication problems, family-of-origin issues, isolation, fertility challenges, and workplace stress. Autism and Asperger Syndrome are listed among her additional focus areas.
Her work balances listening with clear strategies. Client-Centered Therapy provides space for a person to tell their story and set the pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers concrete tools to shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors.
Getting started means choosing an online option, completing a brief matching questionnaire, and scheduling a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not currently accepted.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and pacing. In online sessions this means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and lets the client guide topics and timing. This approach suits people who need time to tell their story and prioritize what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Online work typically includes short practical exercises, thought records, and planning changes to try between sessions. This method helps with anxiety, mood concerns, social fears, and coping with life transitions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can be adjusted as work progresses so methods remain useful and relevant.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work, caregiving, or travel. They also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight and let people avoid travel time while still working on skills and problem solving.
