How Michele’s approaches work in online therapy
Michele commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide her work online. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely, reflecting what matters most to the client, and helping people discover their own solutions. It helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort through feelings and decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets patterns of thought and behavior and provides practical skills to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and address depression.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Michele collaborates with each person to identify goals and then adapts methods to fit those goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what is working for the client.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a quick appointment helps. It also lets people try mindfulness exercises and CBT homework between sessions to reinforce progress.
