Online support
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and attachment. In online sessions this means identifying core feelings that drive relationship patterns and practicing new ways of responding to improve connection and closeness.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then commit to actions that reflect their values. Online ACT work often combines brief exercises and real-world experiments to build tolerance and purposeful behavior.
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the room. The therapist offers empathy and nonjudgmental listening while clients lead the pace and topics. This approach is useful for people who need steady support while they clarify goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Michala will collaborate with each person to see which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She may blend approaches and adjust over time as progress or new concerns emerge.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction and in-session exercises, phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is low, and chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins and ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to maintain consistency and use therapy tools in everyday life.
