About Michelle
Michelle Rix is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Oklahoma who uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and depression. She writes plainly and listens closely to understand what is happening for each person. Her practical focus is on small, doable changes that make daily life feel more manageable.
Michelle works with issues related to relationships, intimacy concerns, and addictions. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, eating concerns, anger, and self-esteem challenges.
Background and approach
Sessions are geared toward building skills that clients can apply between meetings. Her approach is trauma-informed and collaborative. That means she helps people notice how past experiences shape current reactions and then practices new ways of responding.
She emphasizes emotional skills, clearer thinking, and steady routines that support recovery and growth. Michelle aims to make sessions straightforward and goal-oriented. Conversations often include concrete strategies, behavioral experiments, and check-ins on progress.
The emphasis is on what helps in day-to-day life rather than on jargon. After five years working in the field, Michelle combines practical tools with a supportive style. She encourages people to use their strengths while trying new approaches.
Her goal is to help clients feel more capable, connected, and able to cope with life changes.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Access
Michelle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, teachable strategies. One key approach emphasizes trauma-informed care, which helps people recognize how past events affect current feelings and behaviors and then practice new ways of responding. Another common focus is skills-based work that builds emotional regulation and coping tools useful for stress, anxiety, and parenting challenges. These methods aim to give concrete techniques people can use between sessions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Michelle works with clients to identify goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. She explains options in simple terms and supports clients in choosing methods that fit their needs and lifestyle.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone calls can fit a busy schedule or lower bandwidth needs, and chat or messaging can work for quick check-ins and short skills practice. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting, and daily life while keeping treatment consistent and practical.
