About Michelle

Michelle Hammock is a licensed independent mental health practitioner in Nebraska. She holds the LIMHP credential and brings six years of clinical experience to her work. Her background includes helping people who cope with addiction, anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, and the effects of physical or emotional trauma.

She uses a warm, interactive style in sessions. Michelle aims to treat each person with respect and sensitivity. She avoids stigmatizing labels and focuses on meeting people where they are.

Background and approach

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered principles. She also incorporates mindfulness and EMDR when those methods fit the situation. Sessions tend to be practical and focused on skills people can use between meetings.

Michelle emphasizes collaboration. She helps clients identify goals and tries different ways of working until something clicks. Change can feel hard, and she aims to help people feel empowered in taking that step.

In addition to common mood and anxiety concerns, she has worked with a wide range of issues including substance and process addictions, compulsive behaviors, mood disorders, phobias, and challenges related to life transitions. Michelle uses straightforward language and aims to make therapy understandable and usable for everyday life.

How specific therapies work online and why they help

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and understanding. The therapist helps people talk through their concerns and supports them in finding their own answers. This approach is useful when someone wants a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to explore feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on practical skills. It helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and then works on changing them. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes because it gives clear steps to practice between sessions.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, is a method used to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories. It pairs focused attention with guided processing to help people reprocess distressing experiences when that approach fits their needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether client-centered work, CBT, EMDR, or a mix of methods is the best fit and adjust as therapy progresses.

Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. This variety lets people choose what fits their schedule and comfort level. The format also makes it easier to continue work through busy days, travel, or when in-person meetings are not possible.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
