Online approaches that match your goals

Michael often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. ACT focuses on learning to accept difficult thoughts and to commit to actions that match personal values, which can help with issues like depression, anxiety, and meaning. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for mood, anger, and addictive behaviors.

He also brings a client-centered stance to sessions, which means listening closely and shaping the conversation around each person's concerns and goals. Finding the right combination of approaches is a collaborative process; the therapist and client review what’s working and adjust the plan together as needs change.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the exact session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Many people find remote work helps fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, make scheduling around work easier, and allow shorter phone or video check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist during the matching process to choose the session style and frequency that best fit your schedule and therapeutic goals.
