Michelle Boodry , LPC

Michelle Boodry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wisconsin with 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on trauma and related concerns and offers straightforward, practical support for people facing hard moments. Michelle presents therapy as a collaborative process and values each person's strengths and story.

She works with people dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, stress and anxiety, addictions, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, and grief. She also supports those coping with life changes, sleep problems, and challenges tied to caregiving or chronic illness. Michelle lists attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), compassion fatigue, and parenting strain among her areas of focus.

Her background includes practice with blended family issues, separation and divorce, domestic violence, and family of origin problems. She also addresses codependency, dissociation, infidelity, and issues linked to isolation or loneliness. Michelle uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, commonly called EMDR, as one approach in trauma work.

In sessions she aims to make work feel manageable and clear. Conversations center on immediate concerns and practical steps the client can try between meetings. She encourages clients to notice their existing strengths and to build from what already works.

Michelle provides services in English. Her practice offers multiple online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

EMDR and practical online therapy options

EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a trauma-focused approach that helps people process distressing memories and reduce the intensity of painful feelings. Sessions involve guided attention and discussion of memories so difficult moments become easier to manage during day-to-day life.

Michelle pairs EMDR with practical, skills-oriented conversation to address relationship strain, anxiety, grief, and mood concerns. That means sessions often include small experiments or coping steps clients can try between meetings. Deciding which approach to use is a shared process; the therapist and client work together to pick methods that fit the client's goals and comfort level.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different needs. Video calls let people use visual cues and more in-depth work. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth or a quieter setting is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, short coaching-style exchanges, or times when writing feels easier than speaking.

These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while collaborating with a licensed professional to find approaches that help them move forward.
