Therapeutic Approaches for Online Sessions

Michael often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors into more balanced, practical responses - this approach is commonly used for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood concerns. Existential Therapy is another influence in his work; it focuses on meaning, choice, and personal responsibility, helping people navigate life transitions, questions of purpose, and midlife concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy complements these methods by directing attention to immediate strengths and small, achievable steps that move a person toward their goals, which can be especially useful when coping with stress or relationship strains.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Michael collaborates with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. He draws on the tools that licensed professionals use and involves clients in choosing strategies that feel most helpful and manageable.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for accessibility and scheduling. Video calls and phone sessions provide real-time face-to-face interaction, while live chat and text-based messaging allow for flexible check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to maintain consistent momentum toward personal goals.
