About Michelle
Michelle Coppins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan with 20 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship pain. Her work also addresses self-esteem, career and life transitions, parenting concerns, grief, and compassion fatigue.
Michelle sees many reasons people seek counseling. Someone may be facing a divorce, a new job, fertility struggles, or the loss of a loved one. Others come because they feel isolated, overwhelmed, or stuck in patterns that hurt their confidence and relationships.
How Michelle works
She blends a client-centered approach with cognitive behavioral tools. That means conversations start with the person’s priorities and values, and then practical strategies are added to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Sessions aim to be straightforward and focused on skills you can use between meetings.
Therapy with Michelle covers a wide set of concerns including mood disorders, social anxiety, postpartum depression, workplace issues, and questions about life purpose or midlife change. She also supports people navigating family of origin issues, communication problems, separation and divorce, and challenges related to autism and Asperger Syndrome. Sessions are offered in English and include flexible online formats.
Michelle helps people set clear goals, practice new ways of coping, and build confidence to handle future challenges.

Online support options
How Michelle's approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's priorities and building a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation. Online sessions let the therapist listen closely to what matters most and shape sessions around your goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) uses practical strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In an online setting this often means setting clear practice tasks, tracking patterns between sessions, and reviewing progress together.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michelle will collaborate with clients to choose or blend methods based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly to see what helps and adjusts the plan so it stays useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels important. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter updates, homework review, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
