Meet the Owner and Therapist, Michelle Lehto Flores, MA, LCPC

Hello and Welcome! If your thoughts, emotions, or reactions have started to feel overwhelming, and it’s impacting your relationships or daily life you’re not alone.

You will feel accepted and understood as we work together to make sense of your thoughts, emotions, and patterns. With over 10 years of experience, therapy is grounded in both clinical expertise and a real understanding of how overwhelming life can feel at times.

At Lehto Flores Counseling, the focus is on helping clients gain insight into their experiences while building practical tools to navigate them differently. Using evidence-based approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and emotionally focused work, sessions are designed to support meaningful, lasting change.

Clients across Illinois are supported one-on-one in working through anger, substance use, grief, anxiety, and life transitions. This includes understanding the underlying patterns that contribute to emotional intensity, relationship challenges, and behaviors that feel difficult to change.

The approach is nonjudgmental, genuine, and direct. Therapy offers a calm, supportive space where clients can explore what they’ve been carrying openly and without pressure; while also being challenged in ways that lead to growth.

Over time, the goal is for clients to feel more in control of their reactions, more clear in their relationships, and more grounded in who they are.
