Approaches That Guide Online Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while taking values-based action; it is useful for people struggling with anxiety, overthinking or difficulty making changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps rebuild trust, safety and healthier emotional bonds in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own experience, offering empathic listening and support so clients can explore feelings, build self-understanding and strengthen their sense of agency.

Michele approaches the selection of therapeutic methods collaboratively, recognizing that finding the right approach is part of the work. She will help clients identify which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences and adjust the approach as the therapeutic relationship develops.

Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, allowing clients to fit therapy into busy schedules and connect from different locations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, try different formats to find what feels most comfortable, and access support from licensed professionals and therapists without travel constraints.
