How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions
Michelle uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical strategies and clearer thinking. Cognitive-style approaches help people spot unhelpful thought patterns and try alternative ways of thinking, which can ease anxiety and low mood. Behavioral approaches emphasize small, doable actions to change routines and increase activity, useful for depression, motivation, and coping with life changes.Finding the right approach is worked out together. The therapist and client review goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then test methods that fit those needs. This collaborative process can change over time as goals evolve or new priorities emerge.
The original biography does not name specific online formats. Please confirm the current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also make it practical to continue work during life transitions or when managing chronic illness, because sessions can be scheduled around treatment, appointments, or caregiving duties.
