Approaches that guide online work
Michelle often draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people spot and change patterns of thinking that worsen mood or fuel anger. These methods break problems into small steps and teach practical skills for everyday situations.She also uses solution-focused ideas which zero in on immediate goals and small changes that quickly make life easier. Narrative approaches help people reframe their story and separate who they are from the difficulties they face, which can reduce shame and open room for new possibilities.
Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth conversations and visual cues, while phone sessions can fit shorter check-ins or low-bandwidth situations. Live chat and text messaging work well for ongoing support between sessions or quick reflections when life is busy. These options make counseling more flexible for different schedules and needs.
