How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Michelle often combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people change unhelpful thoughts and commit to what matters. CBT focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and testing small changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and panic. ACT helps people clarify values and take meaningful action even when difficult feelings are present.

She also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at patterns in relationships and the ways those patterns affect mood and connection. That approach can help when loneliness, trust issues, or repeated relationship problems are part of the struggle. Michelle will discuss these methods with each person and together decide which approach or mix of approaches feels most useful for their goals.

Online therapy with her is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is helpful for deeper conversations and teaching skills. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging work well for brief check-ins, ongoing skill coaching, or when written reflection helps. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, medical care, or caregiving responsibilities and to keep momentum between meetings.
