About Michon
CSW licensed in Alaska with 7 years of professional experience, Michon Whiterose supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem struggles. She works with a range of related issues such as abandonment, attachment, body image, communication problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and women's issues. Sessions are conducted in English.
Michon frames clients as the experts in their own stories and looks for existing strengths to build on. She uses practical, evidence-informed methods including cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavioral ideas to address symptoms and patterns that get in the way of daily life. Expressive arts methods are also part of her approach when people want nonverbal ways to process feelings.
Her background includes work in rural behavioral health and substance abuse settings, and experience addressing trauma and post-traumatic stress. She has professional experience with Native American and Alaska Native communities and draws on that experience when cultural factors are relevant.
Sessions focus on clear steps and skills people can use between meetings, plus time to talk through painful experiences. Michon aims to help people make changes that fit their day-to-day lives, whether that means reducing anxiety, managing cravings, improving communication, or rebuilding self-regard.

How Michon uses evidence-based methods in online care
Michon uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. That approach breaks problems into smaller steps, teaches practical skills, and is often used for anxiety, low mood, and addictive behaviors. Dialectical behavioral principles are also part of her work and focus on building emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills to manage intense feelings and relationship strain.She may also use expressive arts techniques when talking alone is not enough; these methods bring movement, drawing, or creative activities into sessions to access feelings in different ways. Choosing the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. Michon works with each person to identify goals, try approaches, and adjust the plan based on what actually helps.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific session formats are not listed in her biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about available session formats and scheduling options when you sign up so appointments fit your routine.
