Evidence-based approaches and online care
Michele uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and offer ways to test new responses to stress and anxiety. Mindfulness-based work teaches simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and help with emotion regulation. A client-centered stance keeps the persons goals and expertise at the center of the work and guides which techniques are used.Finding the right approach is part of the plan. Michele works collaboratively to identify which techniques fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts strategies over time so the work stays useful and relevant rather than sticking rigidly to one method.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful for full conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a work break. Live chat and messaging are helpful for shorter check-ins, quick problem-solving, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options let people fit therapy into busy lives and keep momentum between sessions.
