Therapeutic approaches and online care with Michelle Yang

Michelle draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to guide her work. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and developing psychological flexibility - it helps clients accept difficult feelings while committing to actions that align with what matters to them. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in early relationships and how those dynamics affect current connections, which can be particularly useful for relationship, intimacy, and abandonment concerns. CBT offers structured strategies to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, supporting improvements in anxiety, mood, and coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Michelle collaborates with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques from different models to build a treatment plan that feels practical and manageable.

Online therapy provides flexibility and accessibility by allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier for clients to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access support from licensed professionals and therapists without needing to travel.
