About Michael
Dr. Michael Mitchell is an LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) practicing in Georgia with three years of experience. He works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and challenges connected to parenting and caregiving. He also addresses trauma and abuse, self-esteem, workplace concerns, and LGBT-related questions.
He uses clear, practical methods in sessions. Conversations focus on what is happening now, what thoughts and habits keep problems going, and small changes to test between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and solution-focused techniques are used alongside mindfulness and existential ideas to help people notice patterns and try different responses.
Dr. Mitchell’s sessions emphasize concrete exercises and skills practice. Clients may be asked to track thoughts, test assumptions, or try short behavioral experiments. These are meant to break cycles of unhelpful behavior and build everyday coping skills for home, work, or school.
He has worked with people facing marital conflict, grief, sexual problems, substance use, and health-related adjustments. He also supports those dealing with abandonment, codependency, blended family stress, workplace problems, and process addictions such as gambling or pornography.
Sessions combine cognitive-behavioral tools with humanistic and psychodynamic perspectives when useful. Dr. Mitchell aims to keep sessions interactive and focused on practical next steps. International clients may be accepted, and sessions are conducted in English.
How his approaches translate to online sessions
Dr. Mitchell uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy in ways that fit well with remote work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors through short experiments and homework. This can help with anxiety, depression, and problem behaviors by giving concrete steps to try between sessions. Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to goals and small, immediate changes; it is practical for people who want focused, time-limited work.Mindfulness techniques may also be used to develop present-moment awareness and stress management skills. These exercises are simple to practice outside sessions and can be reviewed together during appointments. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the early work - the therapist and client decide together which approaches fit the client’s goals and preferences.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find it practical for keeping momentum between sessions while still using the same CBT exercises and solution-focused steps they would use in person.
