About Michelle

Michelle Uribe is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in California who focuses on a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, parenting, self-esteem, grief, anger, depression, coping with life changes, and ADHD.

Background and approach

With 11 years of clinical experience, she draws on work in both educational and clinical settings to inform a compassionate, client-centered approach. Michelle emphasizes meeting people where they are and shaping treatment to each person’s specific needs.

Her style centers on respect, sensitivity, and collaboration, using evidence-based techniques and a variety of therapeutic strategies tailored to individual goals. She pays particular attention to relational patterns such as attachment issues, blended family dynamics, codependency, and family problems, as well as mood disorders, social anxiety, and self-harm concerns.

Michelle aims to support clients through transitions and difficult emotions by creating a thoughtful plan that reflects their values and pace. Clients can expect a therapeutic relationship grounded in empathy and pragmatic tools.

Michelle frames seeking help as a courageous step and positions herself as a partner in the process of finding greater balance and well-being.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Michelle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and relational understanding. One approach emphasizes client-centered work, which centers the person's goals and experiences while building a trusting, collaborative relationship to address issues like anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. Another common technique involves skill-based interventions that teach coping tools for stress, emotion regulation, and managing ADHD-related challenges, useful for navigating daily functioning and life transitions.

Finding the right combination of methods is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each client to determine what fits best given their needs, goals, and preferences. This means approaches may be blended and adjusted over time so the plan reflects the client’s pace and priorities.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and varied communication styles. These formats make it easier to access consistent care from California and allow clients to choose the way of working that feels most comfortable while maintaining regular contact and progress tracking.
