About Michele
LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Texas with three years of clinical experience working with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, depression, and adapting to life changes. Michele Markulec helps people who feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or stuck after a hard season. She offers straightforward support aimed at practical change.
Michele focuses on understanding how thoughts and feelings shape daily life. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy alongside other evidence-informed techniques to build coping skills. Sessions center on identifying patterns, testing small changes, and practicing strategies that fit into everyday routines.
She often sees people dealing with grief, trauma-related difficulties, caregiver stress, and burnout. Michele also addresses communication problems, codependency, obsessive-compulsive concerns, workplace strain, low self-worth, and issues common in young adults and women. These topics are handled with clear steps and collaborative planning.
Michele works with couples on communication breakdowns, repeated conflicts, and emotional distance. She applies Gottman-informed strategies aimed at improving dialogue and rebuilding connection without assigning blame.
She is pursuing further training in Cognitive Processing Therapy for trauma and PTSD and integrates elements of that work as appropriate. In sessions clients can expect practical exercises, thought tracking, and problem-solving tools to try between meetings.
To begin, clients complete an intake that helps set priorities and identify immediate, useful goals. Michele frames therapy as a process of learning new habits and testing what helps so progress feels manageable and relevant to daily life.

How Michele’s methods translate to online care
Her primary techniques include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through practical exercises and skill practice. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems and gives clear tools to use between sessions.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, which narrows attention to immediate goals and small, achievable changes. This approach helps people notice what is working, set short-term aims, and build momentum quickly.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts techniques as needed so sessions stay practical and focused.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people use methods like thought recording, worksheets, and behavioral experiments between meetings, which many licensed professionals find useful for steady progress.
