Evidence-Informed Therapy, Built for Online Connection
Michelle Evans integrates structured, skills-focused methods with a supportive, person-first style in online therapy.Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes practical tools for managing intense emotions, improving communication, and building steadier coping habits when stress, anxiety, or relationship tension feels overwhelming. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, while clarifying values and taking meaningful steps forward during life transitions, burnout, or ongoing self-criticism. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotional patterns and attachment needs, supporting individuals and families in building more responsive, connected relationships.
Because people and situations vary, finding the right approach is part of the process. Michelle collaborates with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what has or has not worked before, then adjusts the pace and tools to fit their needs over time.
Online therapy can make support easier to access and more flexible. Sessions can take place through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose a format that fits their schedule, comfort level, and day-to-day responsibilities.
