Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration, offering a nonjudgmental space where clients set the pace and direction of change.
Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process. Michael works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time as progress and priorities evolve.
