About Michal
Michal Collier is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 21 years of experience. She has worked in agencies and private practice and has provided online counseling. Michal lists anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns among the issues she addresses.
In sessions she uses straightforward, evidence-based approaches. She blends attachment-focused work with client-centered conversations and cognitive behavioral techniques. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills and mindfulness exercises when helpful.
Michal welcomes people from varied backgrounds and says she started her private practice, One Affinity, to increase access to mental health care. Her work has included individual clients, couples, and family-related concerns across different settings.
Her practical focus is on helping people manage stress, cope with life changes, and address problems such as grief, trauma, parenting strain, and self-esteem difficulties. She also lists areas like ADHD, compassion fatigue, and issues tied to commitment, control, and communication.
Sessions tend to center on clear goals and skills practice. Conversations include identifying patterns, trying small behavioral experiments, and learning emotion regulation tools. Mindfulness techniques are used to help people notice feelings and reduce reactivity.
Michal’s approach aims to be collaborative: she listens to what matters to the person and adapts methods to fit those goals. People interested in working with her are invited to view online therapy options, complete a brief matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How Michal’s approaches translate to online sessions
Michal integrates attachment-based ideas, client-centered listening, and cognitive behavioral techniques in her work. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how early connections influence current reactions. Client-centered work focuses on listening and reflecting so people can name what matters most to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and tests small behavior changes to reduce distress.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Michal will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences, adjusting as new information emerges. The plan may include skill practice between sessions and short experiments to try in everyday life.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises and behavioral assignments from home and practice communication skills in real contexts. Licensed professionals typically adapt tools like worksheets, guided practices, and skills coaching to the online setting so sessions can stay focused and practical.
