My approach to therapy

Gifted with a sensitive intuition, Michael applies a custom assortment of techniques to produce insight into problem areas, synchronistic emotional healing, and palpable energetic & spiritual shifts.

His bespoke and curated holistic mental health services include helping clients mindfully shepherd, process, and release their emotions; teaching timeless practices such as meditation, breathwork, and qigong (for grounding, embodiment, and energetic cultivation); and recommending simple nutritional support for mild to moderate mental health symptoms.

What you can expect from me

Clients come away with a suite of tools to use at their disposal on their healing journey, and are empowered to take action in areas of life important to them.

Clients often share feedback that they feel peace, clarity, and relief after a session.

Michael currently provides in-person and Telehealth services on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.

Michael's coaching service offers access to his complete skillset, and is for clients who desire transformational change is a short period of time. Areas for coaching include spiritual coaching, career coaching, men's coaching, and sex & intimacy coaching.

In addition to individual session, 5 & 10 session packages are available for self-pay mental health counseling and coaching.
