Michele Heyman, LPCC, LPC

Michele Heyman is a licensed counselor with 19 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She works with adults facing life transitions, grief, parenting strain, career challenges, and compassion fatigue. Michele also has additional focus on aging and geriatric issues and other family-related concerns. She uses a straightforward, respectful style in sessions. Michele listens first, then helps clients set practical goals. She adapts conversations and plans to each person’s situation instead of using a one-size-fits-all approach. Michele draws on several evidence-informed approaches to guide work in therapy. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and develop new habits. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and take committed steps toward them. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing help increase awareness and strengthen motivation to change. Her background includes work with people from many walks of life, including first responders, nurses, and law enforcement. Michele aims to create a respectful, compassionate space where people can talk honestly about difficult experiences and find ways forward. She welcomes clients who are ready to engage and make changes, and she helps them build practical strategies for daily life. Michele holds LPCC and LPC credentials and practices in Texas.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Michele uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people get clearer on what matters and then take small actions that match those values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and when life changes make priorities unclear.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT is often helpful for stress, sleep problems, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Michele will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and day-to-day life. She adjusts techniques over time based on what is helping.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats offered before booking so you know what is available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use skills learned in sessions right away in their daily routines. Licensed professionals can guide you through practical tools and exercises that translate well to remote sessions, and Michele will help match the style of therapy to what you want to accomplish.
