About Michele
Michele Stolper is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 14 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, compassion fatigue and major life changes. Michele also supports people facing codependency, attachment issues, caregiver strain, grief and questions about life purpose.
Michele keeps sessions straightforward and practical. She helps people name what is wearing them down and identify small changes that make daily life easier.

Her work draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address unhelpful patterns and build resilience. Michele uses methods that help people notice emotional patterns, test new behaviors, and reframe limiting beliefs. Sessions can include skill practice, targeted reflection, and planning for concrete next steps.
Michele has experience supporting those living with the effects of illness, caregiving demands, and the fallout of relationship ruptures such as infidelity or separation. She also works with people handling fertility stress, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and the grief that follows loss. These topics are treated practically, with attention to what helps in daily life.
People often come for help with people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or feeling lost after a relationship change. Michele guides clients toward clearer boundaries and more intentional choices, while keeping sessions focused on usable skills and steady progress.
How sessions work

Another approach focuses on identifying attachment and relationship patterns, helping clients notice interaction cycles and try new, healthier responses.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. She checks in on what is working and adjusts the plan so the techniques match the client's needs and day-to-day life.
