About Michael

He works directly with practical problems like communication difficulties, impulsivity, men's issues, veteran and armed forces concerns, and social anxiety and phobia. Sessions use approaches the biography lists, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy.

How his approaches guide online work

Michael uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT sessions focus on practical exercises, skill practice, and reviewing results between meetings, which can help with anxiety, depression, and anger. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable goals and what has worked before, aiming to create quick, incremental change for issues like communication problems and stress.

Choosing an approach is part of the work together. He will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That can mean combining CBT for thought patterns with solution-focused goal setting to produce practical steps to try between sessions.
