Integrating therapy approaches for online care



Michael employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; CBT is practical and often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Narrative Therapy is used to explore the stories people tell about their lives and to reframe those narratives in ways that promote agency and meaning, which can be helpful for identity, trauma, and self-esteem work. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying strengths and small, achievable changes that move a person toward their goals, making it useful for clients seeking clear, goal-oriented progress.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Michael works with each person to determine which methods align best with their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds and inviting client input throughout treatment.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - offer flexibility for scheduling and allow clients to engage from locations that work for them. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different communication styles, and fit therapy into a busy life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor support to individual circumstances.
