How Michelle’s approaches translate to online work
Michelle uses mindfulness-based stress reduction and creative expression as primary ways to help people manage strong emotions and daily pressure. Mindfulness work focuses on simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and build moment-to-moment awareness. Creative expression techniques invite drawing, journaling, or movement to help make sense of feelings that are hard to name.She also incorporates animal-assisted therapy elements when helpful, using interactions with animals to reduce anxiety and encourage presence during sessions. That approach can help people practice grounding and regulate their nervous system in real time, while noticing relational patterns and emotional responses.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Michelle will discuss what feels most useful based on goals, current stressors, and how a person prefers to work. Together they plan small experiments and skills to try between sessions so progress can be checked and adjusted.
