About Michael
Michael Witham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wyoming with more than two decades of clinical experience. He focuses on clear, practical help for problems like stress, anxiety, sleep troubles, depression, anger, and addiction. He uses straightforward methods to help people notice patterns, change behaviors, and feel more capable day to day.
He began practicing in 2002 and became licensed in Wyoming in 2012, bringing 26 years of work in individual and group settings. That background includes crisis response and work on initial diagnostics and treatment planning. He has experience addressing chronic pain and severe psychiatric symptoms alongside more common concerns such as grief, parenting strain, and coping with life changes.
In sessions he blends client-centered work with cognitive-behavioral techniques. That means conversations start from what matters to the person, then move to practical steps for shifting thoughts and actions. He also uses parts of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness to build emotion regulation and present-moment skills.
Michael emphasizes helping people improve decision making, manage impulses, and gain confidence in daily choices. He aims for measurable progress and strengthening the abilities clients already have. The tone he brings to sessions is direct, empathetic, and focused on usable tools.
People who want help sorting sleep routines, reducing anxiety, or handling major life stressors can expect a collaborative plan tailored to their goals. Those interested in beginning can follow the site’s process to match and schedule a first session.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy starts from the person’s priorities and builds sessions around what matters most. Online conversations follow the client’s lead and focus on goals the person brings, whether that is better sleep, less anxiety, or handling parenting stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. In an online setting this can include homework, thought logs, and step-by-step behavior experiments to test new ways of coping.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving impulse control. Mindfulness elements help people notice tension and respond differently, which can be useful for stress, sleep disruptions, and anger.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest approaches to try. That plan can be adjusted over time based on what helps most.
