About Michelle
Michelle Mohn is an LCSW - licensed clinical social worker in Illinois with nine years of professional experience. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, cope with grief and life changes, and address career and relationship concerns. Sessions focus on practical steps to handle current problems and reduce daily strain.
Michelle uses straightforward, task-focused methods to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going and on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters to each person. That combination supports clear next steps people can try between sessions.
She has substantial experience supporting people affected by serious illness and caregiving roles. That includes work with cancer-related challenges, hospice and end-of-life issues, and chronic illness or pain. She also addresses workplace stress, compassion fatigue, and money-related worries.
In sessions she often breaks concerns into manageable pieces. People work on concrete skills for anxiety, grief, communication, and self-image. Homework and short experiments are used to test new ways of responding outside the session.
Michelle works in Illinois and offers services in English. The practice uses a subscription billing model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled through the online intake flow.
How Michelle combines CBT and client-centered work online
Michelle uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thinking and behavior patterns that feed anxiety or low self-esteem. CBT here means breaking problems into small parts, trying short experiments, and building practical skills for worry, avoidance, and stress.Client-Centered Therapy is used alongside CBT to ensure the conversation reflects what matters most to the person. That approach emphasizes listening, clarifying priorities, and making collaborative decisions about which skills to try next.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist and client assess needs, goals, and preferences together and adjust methods over time. That collaborative process helps pick strategies that fit current life demands.
Session format details are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, or avoid travel. Those practical benefits help people try new skills in everyday situations and follow up on experiments between meetings.
