About Jean-Michael
Jean-Michael Bouciquot is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who brings eight years of clinical experience to his practice. He focuses on helping people who feel stuck during life transitions, manage stress, or struggle with anxiety and depression.
Background and approach
He creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through what matters to them and set clear goals for change. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Florida International University and a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy from St.
Thomas University. He is a member of the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy and holds LMFT credentials in both Florida and South Carolina.
Those training experiences shaped a practical style that centers on measurable steps and real-life results. Jean-Michael uses straightforward techniques like solution-focused work, cognitive-based exercises, and narrative methods to help people shift perspective and build new habits.
He often focuses on communication skills, coping strategies, and problem-solving during sessions. Conversations are aimed at small, doable changes rather than vague promises.
Sessions cover concerns such as grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, career challenges, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related struggles. He also supports people navigating relationship stress and issues related to sexual orientation and identity.
Therapy can include short-term plans or longer work depending on the client’s needs. Jean-Michael offers multiple ways to meet and helps clients pick an approach that fits their schedule and goals.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Jean-Michael draws from proven, practical techniques to guide sessions. Solution-focused work zeroes in on the changes a person wants and maps small, realistic steps to reach those goals; it is useful for people facing specific transitions or wanting faster progress. Cognitive-based techniques help identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or anger, and often include simple exercises to practice between sessions. Narrative methods invite clients to reframe difficult stories about themselves and their relationships, which can reduce shame and open new possibilities for action.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative effort. Jean-Michael will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and how they respond to different methods. Together they decide on techniques to try, review progress, and adjust the plan as needed so sessions stay relevant and effective.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short updates, ongoing problem solving, or people who prefer typing to speaking. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to maintain momentum between meetings.
