About Michael

Michael Dubose is a licensed social worker practicing in Michigan with nine years of professional experience. He holds LCSW and LMSW credentials - LCSW stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker and LMSW stands for Licensed Master Social Worker - and brings a steady, practical approach to supporting people through difficult seasons of life.

He works with individuals facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and family challenges, parenting and fatherhood issues, and concerns around self-esteem and life purpose. Additional focuses include caregiver stress, communication problems, forgiveness, men’s issues, midlife concerns, panic and mood disorders, and the effects of prejudice and discrimination.

Michael emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in his work. He believes people have untapped capacity for change and growth at any stage, and he collaborates with each person to tailor conversations and treatment plans to their specific needs. His practice balances practical skills with an appreciation for the person’s values and goals.

Taking a first step toward a more fulfilling life often requires courage, and Michael aims to offer steady support throughout that process. He helps people reestablish a sense of normalcy and build strategies to cope with life transitions and emotional challenges.

Approaches That Translate to Online Support

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and developing practical skills to change patterns of feeling and behavior - it is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood disorders. Existential Therapy explores meaning, values, and personal responsibility to help people navigate life transitions and questions of purpose - it can be helpful for midlife concerns, identity issues, and questions about life direction. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying strengths and small, achievable steps toward change - it is useful when people want goal-oriented work and faster progress on specific problems.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Michael collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. He tailors the work so it fits the individual rather than expecting the person to fit a single model.

Online therapy with a licensed professional offers flexibility - sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy lives or manage barriers to in-person visits. These options support consistent work on stress, relationships, grief, trauma recovery, and life changes while allowing the therapist and client to adapt the format as progress unfolds.
