About Michelle
Michelle Kyles is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 10 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship concerns, and ADHD. Michelle uses client-centered work alongside practical techniques such as cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused strategies.
Michelle helps people name what feels hard and then pick concrete steps forward. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. She listens for patterns in thinking and behavior, and she uses that information to suggest small changes that add up over time.
Her work often centers on coping with life changes, communication problems, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. She also supports people dealing with isolation, workplace issues, and relationship strains like jealousy or divorce and separation. She brings motivational interviewing into conversations about change when someone is weighing options or readying for a new direction.
Michelle pays attention to how culture and discrimination shape stress and self-worth. She helps people work through multicultural concerns and issues related to prejudice. The approach is practical: identify a problem, try an intervention, then review what worked.
People who prefer straightforward discussion and actionable steps may find this style useful. The first sessions typically focus on clarifying goals and choosing an approach to test. Follow-up sessions check progress and adjust plans as needed.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist follow the client's concerns and pace, helping people clarify values and goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions; online CBT typically includes setting small tasks between sessions to practice new skills. Motivational interviewing helps people sort through mixed feelings about change and build internal reasons to act; it fits well into short, focused conversations.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Michelle will work with each person to identify goals and try approaches that match those goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and may shift as progress is reviewed.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible to continue with consistent sessions during life transitions. Discuss practical needs and preferences up front so sessions can be arranged to fit day-to-day life.
