About Michelle

Michelle Curry is an LCSW practicing online from Florida who blends evidence-informed methods with a compassionate, straightforward approach. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside DBT, ACT, attachment-based, and client-centered strategies to help clients understand patterns, develop coping skills, and work toward practical change.

Background and approach

Her training and background emphasize trauma-informed care and support for people navigating interpersonal and emotional challenges. Michelle focuses on a wide range of concerns including anxiety and panic, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family conflicts, grief, addiction-related issues, self-esteem, and life transitions.

She also addresses more specific difficulties such as abandonment and attachment issues, codependency, caregiver stress, communication and control problems, and recovery from narcissistic abuse. Sessions aim to be collaborative and skills-oriented while honoring each person’s experiences and values.

With three years of clinical experience and a Florida LCSW credential (FL LCSW SW25803), Michelle offers multiple remote session formats to fit different needs and schedules. Prospective clients who are located within Florida can begin by completing the platform’s matching steps and scheduling according to her availability.

How Michelle’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Michelle commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to learn concrete strategies for managing symptoms like anxiety or panic attacks. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another approach she uses that emphasizes clarifying personal values and building psychological flexibility to cope with difficult emotions. Attachment-Based Therapy appears in her work to explore relationship patterns, heal from attachment wounds, and improve interpersonal connection and communication.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Michelle works with each client to determine which combination of methods best fits their goals, needs, and personal style, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds and priorities change.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access therapeutic support from home or other locations in Florida, while allowing for a mix of real-time conversation and written check-ins when that suits a client’s routine.
