About Michelle

Michelle Chabot is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Colorado who works with people facing relationship, parenting, and life-change challenges. She aims to create a calm space where clients can tell their story and find practical steps forward. Michelle draws on her own life experience to relate to the stresses of career shifts, relocation, and trauma.

She spent 12 years in the Air Force and describes that time as shaping her ability to understand the pressures faced by veterans, military families, and people in high-stress jobs. Michelle holds a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Professional Counseling, and she maintains involvement with counseling organizations to keep learning techniques that help clients.

In sessions she listens for patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behavior and helps clients try small changes that build momentum. She often focuses on communication, confidence, coping skills, and ways to manage feelings like grief, anger, or shame. Michelle also has experience running support groups around fertility and pregnancy loss topics.

Her approach is collaborative: she and the client set goals and choose practical steps to reach them. She emphasizes resilience, relationship strengthening, and realistic problem-solving that fits a person’s life.

People who might connect with her include those dealing with adoption and foster care questions, parenting strain, career transitions, addiction concerns, or trauma recovery. Michelle aims to help people move from feeling stuck to taking manageable steps toward their goals.

How therapeutic approaches inform online care

Michelle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on how thoughts, stories, and solutions shape daily life. Cognitive-style work helps people notice unhelpful thinking and practice different ways of responding, which can reduce worry, low mood, and conflict. Narrative-style work looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships and helps rewrite those narratives to support healthier choices and greater self-esteem.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, history, and preferences. That might mean testing a technique for a few sessions and adjusting based on what feels most helpful.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the specific session options before booking. Many people find online work convenient because it can fit into a busy day, make scheduling around work or caregiving easier, and reduce travel time. Online sessions can also allow shorter check-ins when needed or make it simpler to maintain continuity during life transitions. Ask about the available formats so sessions can be arranged in a way that fits your routine and needs.
