Michelle Loper LCSW-S, LICDC-CS, BCD

Hello, I appreciate your interest in our services. My name is Michelle Loper, and I am a licensed clinical social worker, and also a licensed chemical dependency counselor. I am licensed to provide supervision for both. I am also board certified in clinical social work. I am co-owner of B&L Psychotherapy and Consulting. I have practiced for over 20 years providing individual, family, and group therapy. My therapeutic approach to challenges is predominately cognitive behavioral treatment and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). I also have a background in military practice and dealing with trauma from a variety of therapeutic approaches.

I provide skills to assist individuals in coping with their challenges and hope to cultivate independence and self-fulfillment. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I do not believe in stigmatizing labels. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I have a Master’s in Social Work from The Ohio State University and a Bachelor’s in Social Work from the University of Hawaii. I am hopeful that working together will bring change to both of us.
