How Michele’s approaches fit with online therapy

Michele uses client-centered methods that focus on listening and reflecting back what matters to each person. This approach helps people feel understood and keeps the pace set by the client, whether discussing day-to-day stress or deeper relationship concerns.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. CBT offers clear steps you can practice between sessions and is useful for anxiety, sleep problems, and stress-related issues.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Michele will discuss your goals and preferences and suggest techniques that match your needs. Together you can try different tools and adjust the plan as you go.

Session formats supported by this profile are not listed in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking.
