How Michele applies evidence-based methods in online sessions
Two evidence-based approaches Michele uses are brief skills work and structured talk. Brief skills work teaches concrete techniques such as breathing, grounding, pacing, and behavior changes to manage anxiety, cravings, mood swings, or sleep disruption. Structured talk focuses on identifying patterns, clarifying problems, and setting specific goals for change.She also uses goal-focused problem solving to break big issues into small steps. This approach helps with career decisions, parenting challenges, grief, and coping with life changes by creating actionable plans and tracking progress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele treats therapy as a collaborative process and will help figure out which techniques fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She explains options plainly and adjusts methods as someone responds to treatment.
Confirm available session formats before booking because the biography does not specify them. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, or allow for brief check-ins during a work break. Some formats work better when video is possible, while phone sessions may be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed.
