Therapeutic approaches and online care

Michelle often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; this practical approach is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore relationship patterns and emotional bonds, making it helpful for family dynamics, intimacy-related issues, and attachment concerns. Trauma-Focused Therapy provides targeted strategies to process and reduce the ongoing impact of past traumatic experiences, and can be applied when post-traumatic stress or trauma-related symptoms are present.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Michelle works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and the specific issues they bring, then tailors techniques from these models to create a personalized plan that fits their needs.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers practical flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and those who live at a distance from in-person services. These options allow clients to engage in consistent, therapeutic work from locations that are convenient for them while maintaining continuity with licensed professionals and therapists who can adapt treatment to the online format.
