Kelly Messing-Mirabito is a professional counselor based in Michigan with 19 years of clinical experience.

Kelly approaches counseling with compassion, empathy, and strong listening skills, meeting people where they are and helping them move toward their goals. Her clinical work blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with humanistic principles, brief solution-focused techniques, and behavioral therapies to tailor support to each individual’s needs.
She is a licensed professional counselor in Michigan (MI LPC 6401007561). Kelly acknowledges the courage it takes to seek help and welcomes the opportunity to work collaboratively with individuals navigating life’s challenges. The platform used for scheduling is not appropriate for individuals feeling suicidal; in those situations people should call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-8255, dial 911, or go to their local emergency room.
Many people wonder whether virtual counseling can truly help. For common issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility - individuals can connect in the format that fits their schedule and comfort level, whether that is a video session, a phone call, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability often makes it easier to maintain consistent care.
Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients may choose to switch therapists at any time if they feel a different fit would be better. Online therapy offers a practical option for many people seeking support for everyday mental health concerns.
