About Misha

Misha Greer is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 22 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and identity concerns. Misha aims to make sessions feel calm and affirming so clients can speak honestly about what matters to them.

Her practice pays close attention to how relationships and attachment patterns shape feelings and behavior. She uses practical tools to address day-to-day problems like communication struggles, anger, and coping with big life changes.

Background and approach

Misha also supports people facing grief, addictions, bipolar mood concerns, and compassion fatigue. She draws on attachment-based work to look at how early and current relationships affect trust and closeness. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to identify unhelpful thinking and build new coping habits.

Her style is client-centered, which means she listens first and tailors the plan to each person’s needs. Misha has particular experience with issues connected to identity and belonging, including LGBT concerns, body image, and attachment issues. She also works with people dealing with adoption and foster care histories, aging and caregiver stress, autism-related concerns, and a range of intimacy and sexual-culture questions.

Sessions focus on clear goals, practical steps, and steady support. Misha helps clients name patterns, try different ways of relating or thinking, and track small changes over time. Her work is grounded in real problems and straightforward strategies.

Online options and therapeutic approaches that fit your life

Misha blends attachment-based and cognitive behavioral approaches to address emotional and relationship concerns. Attachment-based work looks at how patterns of closeness and trust formed over time affect current relationships and emotional reactions; it is helpful for people who struggle with intimacy, abandonment fears, or repeated relationship conflicts. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and building practical coping skills.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, history, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to focus on shifting thoughts and habits, exploring relationship patterns, or combining strategies from different approaches.

Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. These options let people work on goals from home, fit sessions around busy schedules, and check in between meetings when needed. The variety of formats supports steady progress while accommodating different comfort levels and life demands.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
