Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care
Michael Powers draws on established methods to address a range of concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify and reframe unhelpful thought patterns and build concrete coping skills - it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, panic, and many mood-related challenges. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and processing traumatic experiences in ways that reduce their ongoing impact and support recovery from post-traumatic stress and related symptoms. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, person-centered style that strengthens motivation for change and can be especially helpful for addiction, ambivalence, and goal-oriented work.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Michael works collaboratively with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and together they decide which methods to emphasize so treatment aligns with each person's situation and readiness for change.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for accessing care from home or another convenient location. Video calls and phone sessions allow live conversation, while live chat and text-based messaging provide flexible, real-time or on-the-go options. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care when in-person appointments are not possible, all while allowing licensed professionals and therapists to apply evidence-based approaches effectively.
