Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Michael
Michael integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness approaches in his online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and creating a respectful, nonjudgmental environment so clients can explore their goals and values and draw on their own strengths to make changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy is skills-based and helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, build coping strategies, and reduce symptoms related to stress and anxiety or motivation and confidence issues. Mindfulness therapy teaches practical attention and breathing techniques to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness, which can support emotional regulation and coping during life transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Michael works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts strategies as progress is made. This collaborative stance helps tailor care to each person's situation and comfort level.
Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals and therapists through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and engage in care from familiar surroundings while working toward meaningful progress.
