Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Michelle uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients lead the pace and focus of work while the therapist provides empathic support - an approach that suits people seeking understanding, self-exploration, and stronger relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and modify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; it is practical and goal-oriented and often helps with anxiety, depression, addictive behaviors, and OCD. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it a helpful option for clients struggling with intense emotions, impulsivity, or chronic interpersonal conflict.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Michelle collaborates with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time so care remains aligned with progress and changing circumstances.

Online therapy with Michelle can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, travel, or distance. These remote options make it easier to maintain consistent care, access licensed professionals from different locations, and fit therapy into everyday life.
