How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Michele draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people change patterns and manage strong emotions. One common approach she uses focuses on skills training and behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and improve daily coping. This involves trying specific, manageable actions between sessions to test what helps.

Another approach emphasizes understanding attachment and relationship patterns. That work helps people notice how past experiences shape current reactions and then practice new ways of relating that lead to less conflict and more connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele treats therapy as a collaboration and will help figure out which techniques fit a person’s goals and preferences. She checks in about what is and isn’t helpful and adjusts the plan over time.

The biography does not list which session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time around work or caregiving duties. Licensed professionals can tailor session pacing and homework to match everyday responsibilities, helping therapy fit into real life rather than adding more strain.
