About Michelle
Michelle Tiger is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Pennsylvania with four years of clinical practice as a therapist. She works with adults on concerns such as insomnia, work and career issues, depression, relationships, parenting, grief, and coping with major life changes. She identifies as an LGBTQ+ ally and lists family and attachment-related topics among her areas of focus.
Before practicing psychotherapy she held roles in aging services, adult day programs, hospice, home care, and community re-entry. That background informs how she talks about caregiving stress, chronic illness, and aging concerns in sessions. She also brings experience working with people involved in correctional settings and with employment coaching around job searches.
In sessions she uses a client-centered stance and practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness-informed work. Conversations often look at thought patterns and behaviors that keep people stuck and identify small, manageable changes to try between meetings.
She offers coaching around employment challenges alongside therapy for mood, anxiety, and relationship stress. Michelle also addresses sleep difficulties and has applied approaches for insomnia in her practice. Her focus on movement, exercise, and nutrition is presented as part of general well-being conversations when relevant.
People who contact her can expect straightforward discussion of goals and next steps. She works in English and accepts international clients, and she asks people to confirm current session options before booking.
How Michelle’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, then choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and problems with motivation or avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and trying concrete experiments to change them. CBT is commonly applied to anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress management. Mindfulness-informed work teaches simple attention exercises and present-moment skills that can reduce reactivity and support better sleep and emotion regulation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Michelle will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The process is collaborative and practical, with small changes and measurable steps emphasized early on.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also make it simpler to join from different locations if someone is outside their usual area. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises to remote work so people can practice skills between sessions.
