About Michelle

Michelle Cohen Negri brings together the discipline of a former professional athlete and the clinical training of a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) to offer grounded, strengths-focused therapy. She draws on lessons from competitive sport - such as perseverance, routine, and resilience - and translates those principles into practical support for people facing difficult life transitions.

She has focused experience working with grief and bereavement, trauma, and chronic or terminal illness, and approaches these concerns with compassion and steadiness. Her work emphasizes collaboration and real-world strategies that help clients manage overwhelming emotions, clarify values, and take achievable steps toward change.

Therapeutically she blends Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness practices, using each method to build emotional regulation, reduce distress, and identify what is working in a person’s life. Sessions center on identifying strengths, addressing barriers, and creating values-driven plans that feel realistic and meaningful.

Known for a warm and collaborative manner, she helps people explore their stories and develop sustainable tools for healing and growth. Michelle supports clients who are ready to begin or continue a journey toward greater clarity, resilience, and personal well-being.

Evidence-Based Techniques for Online Care

Michelle integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) into online sessions to help people identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and skill-focused, often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress management.

She also uses dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) strategies to build emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. DBT offers concrete tools for managing intense emotions and improving communication in relationships.

Mindfulness practices are woven into her work to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity, supporting clients who want greater calm and clarity amid life challenges.

Finding the right combination of approaches is a collaborative process. Michelle works with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so therapy remains a good fit for the individual.

Online therapy with Michelle offers practical flexibility - sessions can occur by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate schedules and comfort levels. This range of options helps make consistent care more accessible while allowing therapists and clients to focus on meaningful progress.
