Approaches that fit your life, offered online
Michele uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot and change unhelpful thought patterns and related behaviors. That approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and difficulties with motivation.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action even when uncomfortable feelings are present. That work can help with life transitions, relationship choices, and long-term coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals and daily routines. She adjusts methods over time based on what is working and what isn’t, so the path is a team effort.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can suit quick check-ins or shorter support during a busy day. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other responsibilities while keeping treatment practical and goal-focused.
