About Michelle

Michelle Wygant is an LPC with 15 years of clinical experience providing outpatient therapy across a wide range of concerns. She works with people managing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions.

Background and approach

Her practice also addresses ADHD, bipolar symptoms, caregiving stress, eating and sleeping concerns, and other complex presentations that can affect daily functioning and relationships. Her style is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each person's needs.

Michelle draws principally from client-centered principles and cognitive behavioral techniques, helping clients explore thoughts and emotions while building practical coping strategies. Motivational interviewing and trauma-focused approaches further guide her work when people need support making changes or processing painful experiences.

Based in Pennsylvania, Michelle brings a solid clinical foundation to each case and has experience supervising early-career clinicians. She uses a strengths-based stance and aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where clients can work toward clearer goals and gradual change.

Approaches and Online Support for Growth

Michelle integrates client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide online work. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and building a respectful therapeutic relationship so clients feel heard while exploring their goals and values. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical behavioral strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is collaborative; the therapist will work with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That process can include trying techniques from different approaches and adjusting plans over time so the work remains relevant and manageable.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, maintain continuity during life transitions, and follow up between sessions with messaging when appropriate. Licensed professionals can use these options to tailor how care is delivered to best support a client's circumstances.
