How Michele's Approaches Work Online
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape how people connect now. Online sessions can help identify patterns that affect trust and closeness and then practice new ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses clear exercises and homework to change unhelpful thinking and build different behaviors that reduce anxiety or depression.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Michele will talk with each person about their goals, past history, and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to focus on attachment patterns, thought work, mindfulness, or a blend of methods to match real-life needs.
Online therapy offers a range of session formats to fit busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when a shorter touchpoint fits a work break or a tight schedule.
