How EMDR and practical approaches work online
Michelle uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as one of her primary approaches. EMDR involves guided bilateral stimulation while processing difficult memories, which can help reduce the intensity of trauma-related reactions and distressing memories. It is often used when past events continue to cause strong emotional or physical responses.She pairs EMDR with straightforward, skills-based work to manage anxiety, sleep problems, relationship difficulties, and stress. That work includes identifying unhelpful patterns, practicing coping skills, and setting concrete goals. The therapist and client decide together which methods to try, checking whether they fit the client’s needs and preferences.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list formats. Many people find online work easier to fit into study, work, or busy schedules because it can reduce travel and allow flexible timing. Some formats use less bandwidth or can be shorter check-ins, which helps maintain regular contact while balancing classes, jobs, or caregiving. The therapist will collaborate with the client to pick approaches and session lengths that fit their routine and goals.
