EMDR and Strengths-Based Support Delivered Online

Michelle is trained in EMDR, a therapy method that uses guided bilateral stimulation alongside focused processing to help lessen the emotional intensity of traumatic memories. EMDR is often used for trauma-related symptoms and for people who want to reduce the distress tied to past events.

She also uses a strengths-based approach that centers the client as the expert of their own life, helping identify existing skills and resources that support recovery and change. This approach emphasizes collaboration and practical steps to build confidence and improve relationships.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself, and Michelle works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Licensed professionals can adapt techniques over time to respond to changing priorities.

Online therapy offers flexibility and access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier for clients to attend sessions from home or while managing busy schedules, and they support continuity of care across life transitions.
