She is a Past President of the American Association of Suicidology and she has written several books about the experiences of families following the suicide of a member, given workshops to the bereaved and the clinicians who work with them on dealing with their grief, and spoken widely on the topic. She also has offered workshops in the Southwest for the Navajo and Pueblo peoples of the reservations, who have suffered high rates of suicide among young people.

==Early life and education==
Michelle Linn was born in 1971 and reared in the Chicago suburb of Naperville, the third of four children. Her family included a younger sister. She wanted to be a writer since elementary school.〔(Samantha Sinkhorn, "Alum helps others cope with suicide and loss" ), ''Alumni News'', 10 January 2011, Ball State University〕 After attending public schools, Linn attended Ball State University, where she worked toward a degree in magazine journalism. She also wrote for the student newspaper, the ''Ball State Daily News''.
Her younger sister Denise Linn suffered in high school from depression and bulimia, an eating disorder. She died by suicide in 1993 at age 17, an event that had a profound effect on Linn.〔(Michelle Linn, "A Sister's Message", 1993 ), hosted at Friends for Survival, Official Website〕 Michelle Linn published her first piece about her sister and her death two weeks later in her university newspaper. Linn eventually changed the direction of her studies and writing as a result of her loss, having learned there were few sources to help siblings of suicides. In 2013, Michelle was awarded the Journalism Alumnus Award for her work around the suicide bereaved. That year she also won the National Alliance on Mental Illness - DuPage County Chapter Supporter of the Year Award for her columns in The Naperville Sun newspaper about mental illness.
In the summer of 1993, Linn had a communications internship with (USA Boxing ) at the (United States Olympic Training Center ) in Colorado Springs, Colorado. While there, she befriended LaRita Archibald of the (HEARTBEAT ) survivors of suicide loss support groups and became interested in how such groups help families. Linn-Gust finished her B.S. degree at Ball State in May 1994. That fall she began graduate work at the University of New Mexico and earned an M.S. in Health Education in May 1996. Later she returned for more study, earning her Ph.D. in Family Studies from the University of New Mexico in 2008.
