Michelle's Approach
Michelle primarily uses an approach called 'ACT' - which stands for Acceptance & Commitment Therapy - to facilitate these sessions.
She may also draw on CBT, Process Oriented, Narrative or Solutions-Focused approaches as required.
ACT or Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, is a form of psychotherapy based in mindful awareness.
ACT therapy teaches you acceptance of life difficulties, and how to create 'space' between you and problems that overwhelm you.
