About Michal

Michal Collier is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 21 years of clinical experience based in Georgia.

Background and approach

She has maintained a varied practice that includes agency work, independent practice, and online counseling, and she created One Affinity to expand access to quality mental health care for a wide range of clients. Her practice emphasizes individualized care and uses evidence-informed methods to address presenting concerns.

Collier works with adults and families on issues including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family struggles, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, intimacy-related concerns, self-esteem, career stress, compassion fatigue, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.

She also addresses related patterns such as attachment difficulties, codependency, communication and control problems, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, and the effects of divorce or domestic violence. Her approach blends attachment-based perspectives with client-centered, cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavior, and mindfulness techniques to match treatment to each client's needs.

Her goal is to collaborate with clients to build practical skills, improve relationships, and support coping through life transitions. Prospective clients start by completing a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Integrating therapeutic approaches in online care



Michal frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore relational patterns and how early bonds shape current relationship dynamics and emotional responses. These approaches are often paired with mindfulness strategies and DBT skills when clients need tools for emotion regulation and present-moment coping.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative; she works with each person to consider their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring and adjusts techniques as the work progresses. Clients can expect a mix of skill-building, reflective exploration, and practical problem solving tailored to their situation.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provides flexibility for busy schedules and diverse needs. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, to practice skills between sessions, and to access therapy from different locations within Georgia. Licensed professionals guide the process and adapt methods so online formats support meaningful progress.
