How Michele's Approaches Work Online
Michele often uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening closely and following the client's pace. This approach helps people feel heard and in control of the goals they want to set. It is useful for building motivation and self-understanding when life feels overwhelming.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change them. CBT is helpful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related routines, and stress management because it breaks bigger problems into small, actionable steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele treats therapy as a collaboration and checks in about what feels helpful. Together, therapist and client decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress develops.
Online formats let people fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls work well for in-depth sessions where visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick reflections, homework check-ins, or support between sessions. These choices make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, family, and other demands.
