About Michelle

Michelle Gross is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 20 years of counseling, coaching, and education experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, ADHD, grief, depression, relationship and family concerns, and life transitions including blended family issues.

Michelle blends practical strategies with self-awareness. She draws on a counseling master's degree and an MBA from Wake Forest University to combine mental health tools with real-world problem solving. Sessions focus on clear goals and step-by-step strategies that turn insight into action.

She has worked in schools, universities, corporations, and private practice. That range informs an approach useful for adults who juggle work, parenting, caregiving, or multiple roles. Michelle often helps people organize tasks, set priorities, and use systems that match how their brains work best.

People who come for ADHD support are helped to build coping routines and skills that fit daily life. Others seek help for grief, depression, anxiety, or relationship and family stress. Michelle also addresses issues such as addictions, sleep and eating concerns, anger, and compassion fatigue.

Her work with professionals and entrepreneurs includes practical coaching on leadership, delegation, and project follow-through. Michelle emphasizes straightforward tools you can try between sessions and adjustments based on what actually works.

Michelle accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. To start, readers are asked to use the site flow to select online therapy options, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How Michelle uses online therapy and therapeutic methods

Michelle commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and change thoughts and behaviors that keep problems active. CBT is practical and works well for anxiety, depression, and problem-solving around daily routines or work tasks.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication. Those tools can help when emotions feel intense or when relationships and family interactions create ongoing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michelle treats the choice of methods as collaborative and will help clients test what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts strategies as progress and obstacles appear so sessions stay focused and useful.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people appreciate online sessions for fitting therapy into workdays, cutting commuting time, or making short weekly check-ins easier to schedule. Discuss with Michelle at the first meeting how to structure sessions so they work with your routine and priorities.
