How Michele uses evidence-based techniques online
Michele draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete skills and shifts in thinking. For example, a cognitive approach helps people notice unhelpful thoughts tied to guilt or shame and practice alternative ways of interpreting situations. This can be useful for anxiety, self-criticism, and social worry.She also uses practical strategies that resemble behavioral techniques - small experiments and gradual steps to test beliefs and reduce panic or avoidance. These hands-on exercises aim to make daily life feel more manageable by changing what people do and see over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Michele will help clients decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She treats that as a collaborative process and adjusts plans as people try things and report back.
