About Michelle

Michelle Louisville is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with two decades of clinical experience supporting people through addiction, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. She brings additional training as a Certified Addictions Professional (CAP) and a Registered Yoga Teacher with 200 hours of instruction, combining evidence-based therapy with a holistic awareness of body and mind.

Her practice emphasizes motivational strategies and mindfulness to help clients build sustainable coping skills. Michelle works with veterans and active service members and offers focused support for those struggling with low motivation, self-esteem and confidence, career stress, caregiver strain, substance use, and sleep or mood concerns. She also addresses family dynamics, codependency, communication difficulties, and the emotional impacts of prejudice and discrimination.

Michelle uses approaches such as Motivational Interviewing, mindfulness practices, and cognitive methods to identify unhelpful beliefs and replace maladaptive patterns with healthier choices. She collaborates with each person to set realistic goals and develop practical tools aimed at improving daily functioning and overall well-being. Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and she aims to make that step as respectful and constructive as possible.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Michelle integrates Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into her online practice. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that helps people explore and resolve ambivalence about change and is particularly useful for addictions and low motivation. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness techniques that reduce stress, improve emotional regulation, and support recovery from trauma, grief, and mood concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical skills for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Michelle works collaboratively with each person to choose or combine methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She helps clients try approaches and adjust treatment as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions may take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging - allowing people to access care from home or on the go. This range of options can make scheduling easier and sustain continuity of care when life circumstances change, while still allowing licensed professionals and therapists to provide focused, goal-oriented support.
