About Michelle

Michelle Kveum is a licensed professional counselor based in Arkansas who brings 16 years of clinical experience to her practice. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions while also addressing concerns related to LGBTQ experiences, self-esteem, and career or parenting stress.

Background and approach

Her LPC credential signals formal licensure in Arkansas and reflects a background in evidence-informed therapeutic approaches. Her style blends practical skill-building with empathic listening, emphasizing personalized care and collaborative goal-setting.

Clients can expect work on coping strategies for panic, impulsivity, codependency, caregiver fatigue, and communication problems, as well as support for grief, anger, and feelings of emptiness. Michelle integrates techniques drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered methods, and mindfulness-based practices to help people develop clearer thinking patterns and more effective responses to everyday challenges.

Michelle also uses solution-focused and motivational interviewing strategies when appropriate to help clients identify priorities and take actionable steps toward change. She aims to create a respectful, inclusive space that honors multicultural perspectives and supports people facing family difficulties, eating and food-related issues, or the complex symptoms associated with mood dysregulation.

How her approaches translate to online care



Michelle commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her online work. CBT focuses on identifying and gently challenging unhelpful thoughts and building practical skills to reduce symptoms like panic attacks, anxiety, and depressive thinking. Mindfulness Therapy emphasizes present-moment awareness and grounding practices that can help with stress, rumination, and compulsive reactions to strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with clients to explore which methods fit their needs and goals, adjusting techniques over time so the plan reflects each person’s preferences and circumstances.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats allow clients to maintain continuity of care around work, family, or geographic constraints while engaging with licensed professionals who use structured therapeutic tools and reflective conversation to support progress.
