About Michelle

Michelle Scher is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who focuses on helping people navigate anger, relationship challenges, life transitions, family dynamics, and self-esteem concerns.

Background and approach

With 12 years of clinical experience, she draws on practical, evidence-informed techniques to help clients identify patterns, build coping skills, and make changes that feel achievable in day-to-day life. Michelle commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside other adaptable methods to tailor support to each person’s needs.

Her work emphasizes concrete strategies for shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, while also attending to communication and aging-related concerns when relevant. Michelle brings a calm, solution-oriented approach to sessions and aims to collaborate with clients to set realistic goals and measure progress.

Practicing under Oklahoma LPC 5117, she offers services through a variety of remote formats to increase convenience for clients. Michelle’s background includes a range of age groups and family-focused work, and she matches techniques to individual circumstances rather than following a single method.

Practical approaches for online therapy and coping skills



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and behaving. It often involves setting small, measurable goals and practicing skills between sessions, which can help with issues like anger, low self-esteem, and relationship concerns.

Michelle also adapts other evidence-informed techniques as needed to address communication difficulties and aging-related concerns, choosing methods that match a client’s situation and preferences. Each approach is explained in clear terms so clients understand why a particular strategy is being used and what to expect.

Finding the best approach is collaborative; the therapist works with clients to explore needs, goals, and comfort with different methods. That process includes reviewing progress and adjusting strategies over time so therapy stays aligned with what is most helpful.

Online therapy offers practical benefits such as flexible scheduling and reduced travel time. Sessions are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to engage in ways that suit their daily routines and communication preferences.
