About Michael
Michael Witham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with more than two decades of practice. He blends a client-centered style with practical strategies to help people manage strong emotions and make clearer decisions. Michael focuses on helping people who struggle with anger, stress, anxiety, depression, and related concerns.
He works with issues like ADHD, addictions, grief, sleep and eating problems, and coping with life changes. He began practicing in 2002 and has been licensed in Wyoming since 2012.
Background and approach
Much of his work has involved crisis response and initial treatment planning. He has led individual and group sessions that teach impulse control, coping skills for depression and anxiety, and strategies for better organization and decision-making. Michael often uses cognitive behavioral tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
He combines that with a client-centered stance that keeps a person’s goals and strengths at the forefront. He also draws on dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness techniques to help manage intense emotions and build practical skills. Clients may work on chronic pain coping, management of severe psychiatric symptoms, or behavioral changes tied to addictions and anger.
Sessions aim to increase self-reliance, improve emotional regulation, and strengthen everyday problem-solving. Michael emphasizes achievable steps and steady progress. He brings 26 years of experience and a focus on meeting measurable goals while building personal strengths.
Michael practices in Wyoming and offers online session formats for flexible access.

Approaches you can use online
Michael often blends client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building from a person’s strengths so they feel heard and understood. It helps when someone wants support sorting priorities, emotions, and goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, encourages people to spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. It works well for anxiety, depression, anger, and many everyday problems by teaching concrete skills and short exercises to use between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds focused emotion-regulation skills and practical tools for impulse control. These techniques can help when strong feelings or repeated patterns make life harder.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will help determine which methods fit a person’s concerns, goals, and preferences, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer sessions and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or a call-in check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, coaching between appointments, or times when typing is easier than speaking. These options make scheduling more flexible and help people keep therapy consistent with their daily life.
