01About Michelle
Michelle Coppins is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Michigan with 20 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, low self-esteem, and the challenges that come with career and life transitions. Michelle listens without judgment and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
She often meets people who are coping with divorce, grief, pregnancy and postpartum changes, or loneliness. She also supports those facing workplace pressure, fertility concerns, or questions about life purpose.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear goals and manageable strategies for everyday life. Michelle uses a client-centered style that lets each person set the pace and focus of sessions. She combines that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build new coping habits.
Together these approaches help people change what they do and how they think about problems. Over the years she has worked with people dealing with mood concerns, compassion fatigue, social anxiety, and family of origin issues. Michelle also offers support around communication problems, separation and divorce, and parenting stress.
The work aims to give tools that last beyond therapy. The first steps include talking through what matters most and setting clear, realistic goals. Michelle encourages small, achievable changes that reduce day-to-day stress and increase confidence.
She invites people to try different strategies and notice what works for them.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person's lead. It creates space for people to talk about what matters most, set their own goals, and choose the pace of work. This approach helps when someone needs understanding, validation, and guidance for practical next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It breaks down problems into small pieces, teaches simple skills to test and change unhelpful thinking, and builds routines that reduce anxiety and low mood. CBT is often helpful for stress, social anxiety, mood problems, and workplace worries.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person's goals, preferences, and daily life. That conversation can start in the first few sessions and is adjusted as needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation when depth is needed. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is required. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick updates, homework review, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep continuity when schedules change.
