Approaches Michael Bohman Uses for Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens closely and supports the client's own goals and self-discovery. This approach helps when someone needs a safe space to explore feelings and make meaningful life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and developing practical skills to change behaviors and emotional responses. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-focused awareness and self-compassion techniques that can reduce reactivity and improve coping with difficult emotions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Michael works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adapts strategies over time as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions take place - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life or connect from another location. These options allow licensed professionals to provide consistent care while accommodating different communication styles and scheduling needs.
