Michele Kahn, LCSW

Integrating evidence-based techniques with online therapy

Michele uses practical, evidence-informed approaches that help people develop skills and gain perspective. One common approach focuses on building concrete skills - for example communication, coping, and problem-solving techniques - to address relationship concerns, motivation, and mood challenges. Another approach emphasizes a strengths-focused, exploratory process that helps individuals examine patterns, clarify values, and rebuild self-esteem and life direction. In addition, Michele often integrates creative arts-informed tools from her background in the arts to support expression and insight when helpful.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Michele works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, adapting techniques over time so the work matches the client’s needs and pace.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how and when people meet with licensed professionals. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and access support from home. These options can increase convenience and help people engage in therapy in ways that suit their schedule and comfort level.
