About Rebecca

Dr. Rebecca Michel is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 16 years of professional experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, self-esteem, career issues, and coaching. She speaks English and accepts international clients.

Dr. Michel uses strengths-based coaching in her work, helping people identify what already works for them. She combines that approach with practical talking and planning to address everyday problems. Sessions often focus on small, concrete steps a person can try between meetings.

Her background includes a doctorate in Counseling and credentials as a Gallup Certified Strengths-Based Coach and a Daring Way Certified Coach. She draws on those perspectives to center personal strengths while also addressing difficult feelings like guilt, shame, and mood changes.

People bring a range of concerns to her, including caregiver stress, communication problems, forgiveness, life purpose, midlife transitions, pregnancy and childbirth issues, and workplace difficulties. She also works on self-love and women’s issues when those topics come up in conversation.

In sessions she helps people set realistic goals and track progress. That can look like clarifying values, practicing new ways of talking with others, or making a career plan. She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and helps create doable actions between sessions.

To begin, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location.

How evidence-based approaches work in online sessions

Dr. Michel often draws on strengths-based coaching, which helps people spot reliable personal strengths and use them to solve problems. This method focuses on practical skills and short-term goals, useful for career moves, confidence building, and managing stress.

She also integrates approaches that address mood and anxiety by breaking problems into smaller parts and creating step-by-step plans. Those techniques help with worry, low mood, and situations like workplace conflict or parenting stress by making tasks concrete and measurable.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, and will adjust strategies as progress is tracked. The first sessions are often assessment and planning, with later sessions focused on practice and review.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make fitting therapy into a busy life easier by cutting travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or offering sessions when being on camera is not required. Licensed professionals use these formats to help people keep consistency while they try out new habits and responses.
