About Mi
She works with adults and children on challenges such as anger, self-esteem, life transitions, family conflict, and parenting strain.

How certain approaches translate into online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take small steps toward them. It uses mindfulness and action planning to cope with stress, chronic illness, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing daily routines.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and what feels most helpful. Together they adjust techniques and pace so the work fits the person's needs and life situation.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut commute time, and maintain continuity during health flares or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that helps someone keep regular contact. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT exercises to remote sessions so skill practice, tracking, and homework remain practical and useful.
