Approaches that guide online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and responding to each person as an individual. The therapist reflects feelings, asks clarifying questions, and helps people decide what matters most in their lives. This approach can help with anxiety, low self-esteem, and the need to feel heard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that maintain anxiety or panic. CBT often includes homework and simple skill practice between sessions.
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people clarify their own reasons to change. It supports people working through ambivalence about substance use, smoking cessation, or other habits by building internal motivation rather than pushing advice.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Micah will help you explore which methods fit your goals and preferences. She uses collaboration to shape a plan that feels doable and focused on concrete steps.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking. Many people find remote work helpful because it can fit into daily routines, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Discuss options with the therapist to match the format to your needs and day-to-day life.
