Approaches you’ll use and how online sessions work
Michael draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on measurable change. One common approach he uses is skills-based work that teaches concrete strategies for handling anger and reducing reactivity. This involves learning breathing and grounding practices, identifying triggers, and rehearsing calmer responses to typical situations.Another useful approach is problem-focused work on relationships and communication. Sessions emphasize clear language, setting boundaries, and practicing conversations so interpersonal tension eases over time. That kind of work helps with both workplace friction and recurring fights at home.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to the client’s goals, preferences, and daily life. Expect to try a few techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps most.

They can also make it easier to schedule around work, appointments, or different time zones for international clients.
