How Michele’s approaches translate to online therapy

Michele uses evidence-informed techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and build practical skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and testing thoughts that contribute to anxiety or low mood, and then practicing alternative responses. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete steps and goals you can try between sessions to create change.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Michele will work with each person to decide which strategies fit their needs and goals, and she adjusts plans as progress is made. The first few sessions typically include assessment and goal-setting so the direction of therapy becomes clear.

The original profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and support shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows consistent contact during life transitions or periods of high stress, while letting clients practice skills in their everyday routines.
