More about Michelle
- 8 years' experience
- Female
- LMFT
I am licensed in California with 6 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, & coping with grief and loss. I also have experience working with depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I'm easy going and find that building a relationship takes time and communication. I have a lot of life experience to bring to the table as well as empathy for listening and being present. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Great communication
Michelle Frizzelle is compassionate to understand the situation you are going through and yet offers real suggestions and help you could implement. I am so grateful that I got matched with Michelle, who listens wholeheartedly.
Michelle is fantastic. She is professional but I feel like I’m talking to a friend who truly understands me and gives me great guidance. Best therapist hands-down
Very caring listens and keeps in touch shows concern and care for well being
Yeah she’s great :) I feel a bit put on the spot to write her a review so I’m not prepared to write something brilliant. I’ll say she’s very flexible and timely, has good knowledge of a range of therapeutic disciplines and I feel has tailored treatment for my needs. She’s empathetic and kind and relatable. :)
