How sessions work
How her approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's priorities and perspectives. Sessions look at what matters most to the client and follow their pace while the therapist listens and reflects. This model helps with relationship stress and parenting concerns by centering the client's own goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thinking patterns that feed anxiety and depression. In practice this means identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying small behavior changes between sessions to see what works. CBT is useful for anger, stress, and repetitive worries.
Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels uncertain about making a change. The therapist asks focused questions that draw out a person's own reasons for change and supports clear next steps without pressure.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michelle will collaborate with the client to select methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That decision is revisited as therapy progresses to keep sessions useful and relevant.
Specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals often use practical exercises, worksheets, and brief between-session tasks to keep progress moving even when meetings are less frequent.
