Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Michelle Carr incorporates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating an accepting, empathic space where the client’s experience guides the work and people are supported as they explore their values and goals. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression and to build practical coping strategies. DBT teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress, which can be especially useful for mood instability and strong emotional reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Michelle collaborates with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so the work remains relevant and responsive to progress and changing circumstances.

Online therapy with Michelle is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions, reduce travel time, and allow clients to choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
