Background and approach
Her style is straightforward and steady. Michele listens first, then helps people set small, clear goals. Sessions often include talking through current problems, learning ways to manage strong feelings, and creating steps to handle daily life.
Michele uses techniques drawn from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral approaches, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused methods. That mix lets her tailor sessions to what each person needs most right now. Clients who come for help can expect calm, practical guidance and support while they make changes.
Michele aims to help people build coping skills, improve communication, and move toward a more stable routine. She encourages taking gradual steps and noticing progress along the way.
Approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's own goals and priorities. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to figure out what matters most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Michele will collaborate with each person to try approaches that match their needs and preferences, and adjust plans based on what helps most. The process is gradual and goal focused so people can see what changes are working.
Online sessions can be done by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets people talk face to face, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, chat can be a quick check-in, and text messaging is useful for short updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving, or medical appointments while still getting consistent therapeutic help.
