Approaches for Online Care and Therapeutic Work

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, mood regulation, and stress-related concerns by offering concrete skills to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) supports people working through the emotional impact of traumatic memories. It uses structured processing to reduce distress tied to past events and can be particularly relevant for trauma and abuse recovery.

Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes practical, goal-oriented steps to create change. This approach is useful for relationship challenges, life transitions, and situations where clients want to build on strengths and see rapid progress.

Determining the best therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Michael Feldman works with clients to explore their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as treatment progresses to find the most helpful fit.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and mobility needs, and allow licensed professionals to provide consistent care across different settings.
