Whether someone is navigating caregiver stress, loss, or the upheaval of major life changes, she aims to walk alongside them with empathy and clinical skill.

Approaches, Online Care, and What to Expect
Michelle integrates several therapeutic approaches that translate well to remote sessions. Client-Centered Therapy centers the individual's experience and priorities; the therapist listens closely, reflects what matters most, and helps clients explore goals and values, which is useful for issues like life transitions, self-esteem, and caregiver stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors; it provides concrete tools for managing anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it helpful for intense emotions and relationship difficulties.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Michelle works with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques over time so therapy stays responsive and practical. The therapist and client decide together what feels most helpful.
Online therapy with Michelle can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access therapy from home or other locations, reduce travel time, and support continuity of care when life circumstances change, while still allowing licensed professionals to provide structured, goal-focused treatment.
