How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and on clarifying values to guide action; it can be useful for anxiety, depression and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thinking, feelings and habits, and uses simple exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it often suits people wanting practical tools for stress or sleep problems. Client‑centred therapy emphasises an open, non‑judgemental relationship where the person leads the pace and content of sessions, which can help with self‑esteem and relational difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michelle will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before, and then agree a way of working together. That means trying out practices and adjusting the focus as needed rather than committing to a single model up front.
The original biography lists live instant messaging, video and telephone calls as formats offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work, care duties or travel, and they allow for shorter check‑ins or longer conversations depending on what is needed. Many people find the flexibility helps them keep momentum between sessions while trying out new habits in daily life.
