About Michelle
Michelle Voegtle is a licensed professional counselor with more than 25 years of experience helping people navigate recovery, bereavement, and major life transitions.
Background and approach
She centers her work on meeting clients where they are, using compassion and practical strategies to help them move past longstanding barriers and begin building a life that feels more authentic and purposeful. Her approach combines empathy with action so clients can feel heard while also making steady progress toward their goals.
Michelle draws on a range of evidence-informed methods, including cognitive behavioral ideas, acceptance and commitment principles, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing, tailoring interventions to each person’s needs. She emphasizes the present and the possible future rather than staying stuck in past hurts, and she offers coaching-style support alongside counseling to encourage forward motion.
Licensed in South Carolina and Connecticut, Michelle brings a down-to-earth, hopeful stance to work with issues such as stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, relationship and family concerns, caregiver stress, and end-of-life matters.
Evidence-Informed Approaches and Online Support
Michelle integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) alongside client-centered and mindfulness-informed practices. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and learning practical skills to change behaviors and emotional responses, which can be useful for anxiety, stress, and many everyday challenges. ACT focuses on values-driven action and learning to accept difficult internal experiences while committing to steps that align with what matters most, often helpful for grief, life transitions, and persistent worry.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Michelle collaborates with each person to determine what methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She blends coaching and counseling elements, adjusting techniques over time so work stays relevant and practical while honoring each client’s pace and priorities.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide scheduling flexibility for early mornings, evenings, and weekends. These formats make it easier to receive consistent support from a licensed professional without needing to commute, helping people maintain momentum between sessions and access help in ways that suit their daily life.
