Online support options
Approaches that fit online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It emphasizes listening, understanding, and helping people find their own solutions to stress, grief, or relationship questions. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches practical steps to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and eating concerns. Mindfulness therapy helps people notice thoughts and bodily reactions without judgment and practice calm in everyday moments, useful for worry and anger management.Michele treats choosing an approach as a team decision. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped before. Together they pick methods to try and adjust those methods as needed during the work.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people work through deeper material and practice new skills together. Phone calls can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging fit quick coaching, reflections between sessions, or when it helps to send thoughts in writing. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into busy days.
