Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Therapy

Michael Gee integrates several established therapeutic approaches to address symptoms and life challenges in remote sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility - it supports people struggling with anxiety, avoidance, and persistent stress by encouraging mindful action aligned with what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and patterns that contribute to persistent distress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an approach used to help process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity - it can be helpful for those coping with trauma and post-traumatic stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Michael will collaborate with each client to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor sessions to what the client finds most helpful.

Online therapy offers practical advantages for many people. Video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility in scheduling, reduce travel time, and allow clients to engage from familiar environments. Licensed professionals can deliver structured, goal-oriented care through these modalities, making it easier to access consistent support while balancing daily responsibilities.
