If someone feels stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for change, Michelle offers a supportive space to work toward clearer thinking and better daily routines. People who want to begin can expect practical steps, thoughtful listening, and collaborative planning for next actions.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Michelle uses client-centered therapy to start by hearing what matters most to you and letting your goals guide the work. This approach focuses on understanding, empathy, and collaboration so you set the pace and priorities.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT includes practical exercises and tools to change unhelpful thinking and build coping skills for anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with you to choose techniques that fit your needs and preferences. That choice is collaborative and can shift as goals evolve.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and support a steady routine of check-ins and skills practice. It also allows work to continue during life transitions when getting to an office may be harder.
