About Micah
Micah Shuey is an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Indiana with 10 years of clinical counseling experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, self-esteem concerns, bipolar mood issues, depression, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes. She also lists social anxiety and phobia among her focus areas.
Micah draws on straightforward, practical approaches to help people talk through worries and habits that get in the way of daily life. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with an emphasis on learning skills that can be used outside of therapy. She uses methods from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing alongside a client-centered stance.
Before moving into counseling full time, Micah spent many years working in the mental health field in a range of roles. That broader experience informs how she recognizes patterns in mood and behavior and how she supports people trying to change long-standing habits. Her background includes work with mood disorders, substance use concerns, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, panic, and phobias.
In sessions she helps people break problems into manageable steps, practice new ways of thinking, and build motivation for change. Conversations often include clear strategies for coping with anxiety, tools for reducing compulsive behaviors, and planning for relapse prevention in addiction recovery.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy is about listening and following the client's lead. It focuses on understanding concerns from the client's point of view and building a collaborative relationship that supports change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches clear skills to reduce anxiety, manage panic, and change unhelpful habits. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons for change and build motivation to address addictions or other behaviors.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Micah will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaborative planning helps set clear short-term goals and practical steps to try between sessions.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people practice skills in their usual routines and bring real-life examples into conversation.
