About Michell
Michell Fuentes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and challenges around parenting and relationships. She supports concerns like ADHD, addictions, eating and body image issues, low self-esteem, career stress, and major life changes. She also addresses attachment issues, abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, and caregiver stress.
Michell uses a warm, interactive style in sessions. Conversations are practical and focused. She listens first, then works with each person to set small, doable goals.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to build clearer communication, better coping skills, and more stable daily routines. Her approach draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy along with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness techniques. That mix is used to help people understand relational patterns, change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and practice calmer responses to stress.
Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused steps are used when people want short-term change or need help staying motivated. She has 13 years of clinical experience working in Florida and speaks English and Spanish. Michell treats issues related to family dynamics and intimacy, but focuses on helping individuals find clearer ways to respond and relate.
Her work avoids stigmatizing labels and centers respect and compassion. People who choose her can expect a collaborative plan, straightforward skill-building, and practical check-ins. Sessions combine listening, gentle challenge, and concrete tools tailored to each person’s situation.

Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Michell uses Attachment-Based Therapy to help people notice how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach looks at how you relate to others and helps you build more supported ways of connecting. Client-Centered Therapy is also central to her work and focuses on listening closely, reflecting what you say, and shaping the process around your needs and values.She treats the choice of approach as a shared decision. During early sessions she will learn what you want to change, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on your goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize attachment work, cognitive tools, mindfulness, or motivational steps.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes therapy more flexible. Video is useful for full conversations and body language. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, reminders, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options let people get steady help while fitting therapy into busy lives.
