How sessions work
How Michele uses therapeutic approaches online
Michele uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person's own goals and experiences. That means sessions start with the client's priorities and the therapist listens and reflects back to help clarify what matters and what to tackle first.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT is useful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with stressful situations because it offers concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy provides practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with relationship conflicts and overwhelm.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Michele will work with the client to identify which methods fit their needs and goals, and she adjusts plans as progress and preferences become clearer. The first sessions are often focused on assessment and setting short-term targets using motivational interviewing and solution-focused steps.
