About Michelle
Michelle Boodry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 11 years of clinical experience. She lists trauma, relationship concerns, self-esteem, motivation, and confidence among the issues she works with. Michelle also notes experience with anxiety, addiction, grief, parenting strains, and other life changes.
She says people bring stories of hurt and stuck patterns into sessions. Michelle uses clear, practical steps and time to talk through problems. She respects that each person knows their life best and looks to build on existing strengths.
EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is one of the approaches she uses for trauma and painful memories. Michelle pairs that work with conversational therapy focused on present-day concerns like coping with stress, sleep problems, and relationship strain. She also addresses issues tied to caregiver stress, chronic illness, and codependency.
Sessions include developing concrete coping strategies for anxiety, anger, and low mood. Michelle offers help with problem-solving around work, parenting, and major life transitions. She mentions support for people navigating LGBTQ issues and for those managing ADHD and bipolar concerns.
Her style centers on practical tools, steady pacing, and collaborative planning. New clients are guided to select an initial session, fill a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first meeting to begin work together.
How EMDR and conversation work online
EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, uses guided attention and structured processing to help reduce the impact of distressing memories. It is commonly used for trauma and can also help with intense emotional reactions linked to past events.Alongside EMDR, Michelle uses talk-based sessions that focus on current problems like anxiety, sleep, relationship strain, and coping with life changes. These sessions tend to include problem-solving, skill practice, and planning small steps that fit the client's daily life.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Michelle will work with clients to decide whether EMDR, talk-based work, or a mix of both makes the most sense depending on goals and what feels manageable. The plan can change as progress is made.
The practical benefits of doing therapy online include easier fitting sessions into a busy schedule and avoiding travel time. Online work can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins, schedule during a break at work, or continue sessions when relocating within the allowed region. Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered and how they match your needs.
