Background and approach

Michelle blends tools that help with thought patterns, emotional regulation, and relationship interactions. Her background includes a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work. Michelle combines several approaches so work in therapy can be tailored to real-life needs.

She aims to make sessions understandable and useful from the first visit. Clients can expect a compassionate and straightforward tone. Michelle offers help with family of origin issues, attachment challenges, codependency, and caregiver stress.

She also addresses control issues, guilt and shame, and recovery from narcissistic abuse. Practical skill-building is a key part of therapy with Michelle. She supports people through parenting strain, career stress, and the ripple effects of addiction in loved ones.

The focus is on steady, manageable steps rather than quick fixes.

How Michelle’s approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying values and taking small steps toward a meaningful life despite anxiety or stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to reduce panic, shift unhelpful thinking, and change avoidance patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michelle will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and daily life. She combines approaches as needed and adjusts them based on what helps most in real sessions.

Online therapy allows for flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people see body language and have longer sessions. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, practice between sessions, and when written reflection helps process feelings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and different life situations.
