About Michelle
Michelle Kveum is a licensed professional counselor in Arkansas with 16 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, grief, or big life changes. She uses clear, practical methods so conversations feel focused and useful from the start.
Her style is direct and collaborative. She listens first, then helps clients set small, doable goals. Sessions often include problem-solving and skills practice that can be tried between meetings.
Background and approach
Michelle draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness to address thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. She also uses Client-Centered and Solution-Focused techniques to keep work grounded in each person’s priorities. These methods are chosen to match each client’s needs rather than following a single formula.
She works with a wide range of concerns related to relationships, work, identity, and everyday coping. Examples include communication problems, parenting stress, caregiver strain, low self-esteem, panic attacks, and mood difficulties. Michelle acknowledges cultural and identity issues as part of her work.
Sessions are offered in English and provided through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Costs vary with location and therapist availability and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
Practical therapy approaches and online care
Michelle often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in online work. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to lower stress and improve emotion awareness.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and shaping sessions around each person’s priorities. Choosing the right approach is part of the process; she collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level and adjusts as needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families and caregivers. Video calls let people meet face-to-face from home, while phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide shorter or more frequent check-ins when that works better. These options make it easier to practice skills between sessions and keep therapy consistent during life transitions.
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.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
