About Michele

Michele Howard is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in North Carolina who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or intimacy concerns.

Michele aims to make the first step easier and encourages people who reach out to be proud of beginning this work. Michele keeps sessions straightforward and grounded.

Background and approach

She focuses on letting clients talk about what matters most and on practical ways to reduce daily stress. Conversations often include short, manageable strategies to ease anxiety and interrupt panic when it starts. Your goals guide the work.

Michele uses approaches that help identify unhelpful thinking and strengthen emotional connection. She blends techniques to fit each person’s needs rather than using a single fixed method. Over three years as an LMFT in North Carolina, Michele has worked with adults facing mood and relationship challenges.

She creates a calm space where people can name hurts and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others. Sessions can feel like a mix of teaching, talking, and practicing new skills. Michele helps people notice patterns, try small changes, and build on progress between meetings.

Online support

How Michele’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape feelings and behavior. Online sessions with this focus often involve naming attachment patterns, practicing new ways to ask for support, and rebuilding trust in relationships.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice hard thoughts and feelings without being driven by them. In online work ACT can introduce simple exercises to clarify values and build small actions that fit day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Michele will work together with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can shift as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and reading nonverbal cues. Phone sessions are easier when a quieter connection or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text sessions let people check in more often or fit therapy into a busy schedule. These options make it easier to get consistent support from licensed professionals while balancing work, family, and other demands.
