About Michelle

Michelle Edmond is a Florida-based licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger, and depression. She speaks plainly and makes space for people to say what is on their mind. Michelle aims to make the first step feel easier for someone who is worried or unsure about starting therapy.

She uses a narrative approach to help people reframe their stories and see new possibilities. Narrative therapy supports work on life changes, family of origin issues, and finding a clearer sense of purpose.

Background and approach

Michelle also uses client-centered methods to follow the person’s pace and priorities in sessions. Michelle draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and test small behavior changes. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is feeling stuck or unsure about change, especially around substance use or caregiving stress.

Solution-focused strategies keep sessions practical and goal-oriented when immediate coping is needed. Her background includes five years focused on clinical therapy and practice in Florida as an LCSW. That experience informs work with concerns like caregiver stress, attachment issues, communication problems, and isolation.

She also addresses aging and geriatric issues, hoarding, and fatherhood matters. Sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, so people can choose what fits their life. Michelle communicates in English and does not accept international clients.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to connect people and schedule sessions.

Online session options

How narrative and practical approaches work online

Michelle commonly combines Narrative Therapy with client-centered listening to help people tell and reshape the stories they carry. Narrative work focuses on the meanings a person gives their experiences and can help with issues like depression, life purpose, and family of origin concerns. Client-centered therapy emphasizes being heard and followed, which supports pacing and emotional safety during online sessions.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot patterns of thinking and try small behavioral experiments. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, anger, and managing everyday routines when feelings feel overwhelming. These approaches are framed as options to try together rather than fixed prescriptions, and the therapist will help choose what fits each person's goals and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for busy days and different comfort levels. Video is useful for in-depth conversations and nonverbal cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can fit quick check-ins or brief support between appointments. The therapist will discuss which format suits the work you want to do and adapt over time.
