To help clients accomplish this, Michael works integratively; drawing from a variety of evidence-based modalities including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy (SFT), emotion focused therapy (EFT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), Emotion Focused Family Therapy (EFFT), as well as psychodynamic and existential therapy.
