Online support

Therapeutic approaches that work well online

Client-centered therapy puts the person’s goals and strengths first and often involves open conversation about priorities, values, and what the client wants to change. This approach helps with a wide range of concerns because the work follows the person’s pace and focus.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches clear skills for noticing thoughts and changing patterns that drive anxiety or low mood. It often involves practical exercises and short homework tasks that translate well to video or messaging formats. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, focuses on emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal skills; those skills can be practiced and reinforced between sessions using chats or texts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She typically blends approaches so clients get both understanding and concrete tools, and she adjusts plans as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility and easier scheduling for busy lives. Video calls let therapists observe nonverbal cues and do longer conversations, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be simpler to fit into a break. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, skill reminders, and ongoing practice between sessions. These options make it possible to continue therapeutic progress without rearranging an entire day.
