About Michelle
Michelle Halberg is a Nevada LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) with 15 years of experience working with adults. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Michelle names codependency among her additional areas of focus and often addresses patterns of people-pleasing and losing oneself in relationships.
She prefers practical, movement-oriented work rather than only talking. She uses Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction to help slow down and notice automatic reactions. She also integrates creative expression and animal-assisted activities to help people access feelings that are hard to reach with words alone.
Sessions aim to help people reconnect with their sense of self and understand how their habits of relating affect their mood and choices. Michelle teaches tools for regulating emotions, interrupting negative thinking cycles, and practicing small behavioral changes. That includes concrete exercises to try between sessions.
Her background includes many years helping adults through major life transitions and aging-related challenges. She draws on techniques that support coping, grief work, and relationship repair without promising quick fixes. Michelle works in Nevada and conducts sessions in English.

How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Michelle uses Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction to help people notice their breath, body sensations, and automatic reactions. Online sessions can guide short, practical mindfulness exercises that reduce overwhelm and interrupt anxious loops. She also uses creative expression work to help people find words for feelings; this can include prompted drawing, writing, or simple movement adapted for a virtual meeting.Animal-assisted activities are part of her approach and can be introduced in ways that work through a screen, such as sharing interactions with an animal during a session to help a person regulate or practice gentle engagement. These techniques aim to make emotions easier to access and describe rather than rely only on talk therapy.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Michelle will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and adapt exercises and practices to what fits best. That collaboration helps decide which techniques to use and how to pace change.
The platform’s specific session formats are not listed in her biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can tailor session length and activities to practical needs so work can proceed alongside everyday responsibilities.
