How Michele’s approaches work for online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects their experience, and helps them find what feels right. This approach can help when someone needs support being heard and understood during stressful times.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It often includes simple exercises to change thinking patterns and small behavioral steps to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. CBT is useful for people who want concrete tools to try between sessions.

Finding the best approach is a team effort. Michele will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She mixes approaches as needed and checks in about what is helping and what to adjust.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use mindfulness or behavioral exercises in the flow of everyday life. Ask about specific scheduling and format details when you match and book.
