About Michael
Dr. Michael Bobbitt is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan. He focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, and relationship strain. He also supports those dealing with grief, anger, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions.
He uses a client-centered approach that emphasizes listening and collaboration. Sessions aim to be a calm space where people can say what they feel and think without judgment. The first steps are practical and paced to match each person's needs.
Over six years of work in clinical settings have shaped his style. He encourages short-term goals alongside deeper self-exploration, so progress can be felt between sessions. Practical coping strategies are mixed with opportunities to talk through painful events.
Dr. Bobbitt has worked with a range of issues including workplace stress, parenting challenges, ADHD concerns, and identity-related matters. His additional focus areas include panic disorder and panic attacks, trauma and post-traumatic stress, and multicultural and prejudice-related concerns.
People who choose him can expect respectful listening, clear feedback, and help making small changes that add up. He supports people in building skills for day-to-day life and in exploring longer-term patterns when that feels useful. If someone wants to try therapy, he guides them through initial steps and practical scheduling.
How client-centered work fits with online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on clear listening, empathy, and collaboration. The therapist aims to reflect what a person says and help them find their own solutions. This approach can help with anxiety, panic, grief, and relationship concerns because it centers the person's experience and priorities.In practice, sessions start by asking what matters most to the person and what they hope to change. The therapist and client set goals together and try practical steps between meetings. Some people use short skill-building tasks to manage panic or anxiety, while others spend time talking through upsetting events at a steady pace.
Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust methods as those needs evolve. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Session formats are not specified here, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people keep a consistent schedule during life changes while they try practical coping strategies and reflect on longer-term concerns.
