Hello! My name is Michelle Price and I am registered as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Clinical Supervisor with the Board of Counseling in Virginia. I have over 13 years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults and families. Positions that I have held in the counseling field include Clinical Program Manager of Counseling Services, Outpatient Services, Crisis Services, Intensive In Home Services and Therapeutic Day Treatment Services. Counseling Background: All of my counseling experience has been through community mental health services, as I enjoy working with a diverse population with various needs. My theoretical orientation comes from a cognitive behavioral (CBT) point of view. While this is the predominant modality that I utilize, I do pull techniques from other models if they prove to be beneficial to the individuals I work with. I enjoy using CBT in my practice because it is easy to grasp, very flexible to implement to the individual's needs and it is evidenced based (has been proven to be effective). Areas that I have received training in include Trauma-focused CBT, Attachment Based Family therapy(ABFT), Adolescent Community Reinforcement Approach (A-CRA), and Al’s Pals. I have also been trained with administering the K-SADS. I am so happy for you with taking the hardest step in counseling. Reaching out for help is not an easy task at all but it is the first step towards healing and finding peace. I do look forward to working with you in this new journey that you are about to take. .

I hold both, a Bachelors of Science degree in Christian counseling, and a Masters of Art , in professional counseling from Liberty University. I performed my residency at Counseling Alliance of Virginia, in Charlottesville Virginia. I was with them three years before moving on to open my own small business. I’m well skilled in working with individuals, both women and men, as well as, the elderly. My use of therapy is integrative, although I do have my favorites; which include, cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness grounding skills. I am also equipped to give Christian-based counseling when desired, and enjoy weaving in faith-based counseling for a more holistic approach.

I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in New York, and Virginia with over 15 years of experience working in clinical practice as a psychotherapist. My therapy centers on a perspective that puts your strengths and resources back to you rather than on your problems. I believe that the helping process highlights the capacity for resilience and courage. Seeking therapy can dominate feelings of fear and vulnerability, but it should not stop you from achieving your greatest self. People can change, and you are in control of achieving your goals and aspirations. By highlighting motivation for change, you can become a better version of yourself. Change is within and when you learn your purpose, it allows desired outcomes for newly found strengths. The modalities of treatment I use are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy; Brief Psychodynamic Therapy; Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution Focused Therapy. My clinical specialties are depression, anxiety, grief and loss, life transitions, stress management, and geriatric. I also worked with people who have experienced trauma and emotional abuse. My therapy style is empathic, collaborative, and compassionate. I am here to provide positive regard, genuine concern, and do not believe in pathologizing labels. If you are ready to take the first step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you.
