About Misha
Misha Greer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 22 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are carrying heavy stress, anxiety, depression, or life changes. Her practice highlights support for LGBT people and others facing identity or transition challenges.
Misha aims to create an affirming, compassionate space where clients can speak openly. She listens for strengths and patterns, then helps people name practical next steps. Sessions are grounded and person-centered rather than overly clinical.
Background and approach
Her work often addresses relationship difficulties, communication problems, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma, addiction, or caregiving stress. Parenting concerns are a common area she helps people talk through and manage.
Misha uses methods that look at attachment and life history to understand current problems. She blends client-centered listening with tools from cognitive behavior approaches to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Trauma-focused strategies are used when past events continue to affect daily life.
Clients can expect a collaborative, down-to-earth style. Misha helps people build resilience and clearer coping plans. She encourages steady progress with concrete skills and honest conversation.

Approaches and online care that fit your life
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current bonds and responses. It helps when patterns from childhood affect trust, closeness, or parenting styles. Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding your perspective and building on your strengths. That approach helps people feel heard and gain confidence to try new behaviors. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, gives straightforward tools to change thought patterns and behaviors that fuel anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful habits.Misha treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they choose techniques and adjust the plan as progress is made, so therapy stays relevant to the client's life.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video helps preserve face-to-face interaction while phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when you need a shorter check-in. Live chat and texting are useful for quick reflections, message-based work between sessions, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options aim to fit therapy into work breaks, caregiving schedules, or other busy days.
