About Michele
Michele Markulec is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and major life changes. Michele also helps people dealing with caregiver strain, low self-esteem, and feelings of isolation or overwhelm.
Many clients arrive feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck in the same patterns, or unsure how to move forward. Michele uses straightforward, evidence-informed techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try practical alternatives. Sessions focus on small, manageable steps rather than big promises.
Her work includes support for those affected by grief, trauma, and PTSD, and she is continuing training in Cognitive Processing Therapy. Michele also uses elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients build coping skills and reduce distress.
She has experience helping people who struggle with codependency, communication problems, guilt and shame, and relationship conflict. Michele also applies Gottman-informed ideas when couples want help improving how they talk and reconnecting, without assigning blame.
Michele aims to be collaborative in sessions. She helps clients set short-term goals, try new ways of responding, and track what works. If someone wants to start, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Michele uses evidence-informed techniques online
Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused approaches. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice patterns of thinking that increase distress and practice alternative responses. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and intrusive worry. Solution-Focused work centers on small, practical changes and clear short-term goals to move forward when someone feels stuck.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals and day-to-day life. She checks in on what is helping and adjusts methods based on progress and client preference.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that is helpful. Licensed professionals can use video or phone in different situations, and Michele will discuss which option fits your needs when you start.
