Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where the client’s experience guides the work. This approach helps people who need validation, stronger self-understanding, and a collaborative partnership to explore personal goals and values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves identifying and adjusting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. It is often used for concerns such as anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Motivational Interviewing is a conversational, goal-oriented method that helps people resolve ambivalence and strengthen motivation for change. It can be useful for issues like substance use, lifestyle changes, and making progress on personal or career goals.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Michele collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. The treatment plan evolves through discussion, professional guidance, and shared decision-making.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals and continue consistent care from home or another convenient location.
