Background and approach
She combines that with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people identify values and move toward them, even when things feel hard. Her six years of experience include work in addiction settings, trauma care, and with high-risk youth. That background informs how she supports people living with impulsivity, grief, or compassion fatigue.
Michele also helps with relationship and communication problems, codependency, and issues around commitment and control. In sessions she uses client-centered skills to follow the person’s lead while introducing tools like mindfulness and motivational interviewing when they fit. Those approaches help with motivation, building routines, and handling strong emotions.
Michele aims to make strategies feel manageable instead of overwhelming. Therapy is tailored to each person’s goals. Michele helps people translate insights into step-by-step plans they can try between sessions.
She works with adults in Florida and conducts sessions in English by video, phone, chat, or text messaging.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, motivation struggles, and living with ADHD-related distractions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing small changes to see what helps; it works well for anxiety, depression, and patterns like impulsivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michele collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals and daily life. She listens first, then suggests techniques from ACT, CBT, mindfulness, or motivational interviewing and adjusts them based on what actually helps.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video calls let people read facial cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions can be a simpler way to check in when bandwidth or camera time is limited. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, coaching-style prompts, and reminders between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and try tools when they need them.
