With more than 25 years of clinical counseling experience, I bring a compassionate, empowering approach to therapy.

Dr. Michelle Clay

Therapist

Virtual • South Carolina


I am Dr. Michelle G. Clay, a Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor, Licensed Addiction Counselor, and National Certified Counselor with more than 25 years of experience in behavioral health, counseling, education, training, and community-based services. I earned my doctorate in Advanced Studies in Human Behavior from Capella University and hold a master’s degree in counseling.

Throughout my career, I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families in a variety of settings, including schools, outpatient behavioral health, substance use treatment, higher education, and community programs. My clinical and professional interests include ADHD and executive functioning, trauma, depression, anxiety, emotional regulation, behavioral concerns, family and relationship challenges, stress, life transitions, and helping individuals develop healthier coping and communication skills.

I believe people often already possess more strength and ability than they realize. My approach is practical, supportive, and focused on helping clients better understand what may be getting in the way of the life they want to create. I bring both clinical knowledge and real-world experience into my work and strive to create a space where clients feel respected, understood, and able to make meaningful changes at their own pace.

In addition to counseling, I am passionate about teaching, training, and professional development. I have served as an adjunct faculty member, clinical supervisor, facilitator, and conference presenter and enjoy helping both individuals and professionals translate knowledge into practical strategies they can use in everyday life.

Therapist

I provide individual and couples counseling exclusively through telehealth, helping clients manage anxiety, stress, and life transitions while also addressing communication, trust, and relationship challenges. Insurance may cover services that meet your plan’s requirements; counseling focused primarily on relationship concerns may require private pay. We’ll discuss your needs, payment options, and fees before beginning services.


My professional background combines individual, family, and couples therapy, with attention to each client’s emotional well-being, relationships, and life circumstances.


For clients who desire it, I also offer a biblically based, psychologically and therapeutically validated approach, thoughtfully integrating faith with evidence-based clinical care.
