Background and approach

Her approach emphasizes tailoring conversation and plans to each person’s circumstances while offering direct techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

With six years of professional experience, Lichele draws on evidence-informed methods such as CBT along with mindfulness and motivational interviewing to support progress on a range of issues including depression, relationship and family challenges, parenting questions, bipolar concerns, and ADHD-related struggles.

She also works with people navigating caregiver stress, disaster-related coping, substance use, grief at end of life, and trauma-related symptoms. Lichele aims to meet clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while helping them build confidence and clearer direction.

Her practice in Virginia centers on collaborative goal-setting and practical strategies that fit the client’s life. Lichele frames seeking help as a courageous step and positions herself as a supportive partner for clients pursuing change and greater wellbeing.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; online sessions can use structured exercises, thought records, and skill practice to address anxiety, depression, stress, and addictive patterns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathetic, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens deeply and follows the client’s lead, which helps people feel heard and supported as they explore goals and make changes. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and stress-management practices that can reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation across many concerns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Lichele collaborates with each client to determine which combination of strategies fits their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time based on what proves most helpful in practice.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or when in-person visits are difficult. These formats allow for ongoing skill coaching, check-ins between sessions, and a variety of communication styles so clients can engage in ways that feel most comfortable and practical for their lives.
