About Michael

Michael Curry is an LPC who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns. He also supports those dealing with depression, addiction, grief, and life changes such as career shifts or separation. Michael writes plainly and focuses on practical steps people can take right now to feel steadier and more capable.

He uses a mix of talk and skills work to address what shows up each week. Sessions often center on identifying small, doable changes and practicing new ways of thinking and relating. Michael draws from approaches like Client-Centered work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to keep the work focused and relevant.

His background includes ten years in counseling roles across hospitals, mental health rehabilitation settings, and community ministry. That variety has given him experience with a wide range of mental health concerns and cultural contexts. He also has experience working in military and international settings, which informs his perspective.

Clients can expect a direct, respectful style that combines practical tools with conversation about meaning and values. Michael aims to help people build hope, recovery, and resilience while learning skills for self-care.

He offers faith-informed support for those who want it, reflecting his work as a minister. If someone is looking for focused help with anger, anxiety, or relationship strains, he can tailor sessions to those goals.

Approaches that guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting people where they are. It emphasizes understanding the person's experience and supporting their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns. Both approaches are useful for anxiety, depression, and everyday life stressors.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the available online session options before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow a quicker check-in during a lunch break or between errands. It also lets people use methods like CBT worksheets and mindfulness exercises from wherever they are, which helps with practicing skills between sessions.
