How Michele’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then take steps that reflect their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and actions and replacing them with new, clear strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. It often works well for depression, anger, and impulsivity. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele collaborates with each person to choose or combine methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She uses short-term skill practice and values-based planning so clients can test changes between sessions and adjust the plan together. Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are suited for full sessions with face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions can be more convenient when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or when someone needs flexible, on-the-go support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain continuity over time.Start online instead of waiting
