How Mishel’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and strengths. It means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead, helping them find answers that fit their life. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers practical tools for managing intense emotions and improving communication and coping skills, which can help with relationship and impulse-related concerns.Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Mishel will discuss options and try methods that match the client's needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions may include talking, worksheets, behavior experiments, and mindfulness practices to see what feels most helpful. She adjusts the plan as progress is made and as new issues come up.
Online therapy offers flexibility that fits busy lives. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversation time. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text-based messaging can work well for quick check-ins, short coaching moments, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats make regular work on skills and goals more convenient for many people.
