Great to meet you!

Hi there, I'm Mike! Life can be incredibly overwhelming at times and there are moments when we can all feel alone, directionless or hopeless. We can go thru experiences that are incomprehensible and devastating, while at other times we may feel stuck and stagnant, bogged down and not knowing what to do. Whether you are new to therapy or returning due to life's ever-changing circumstances, you do not need to go thru your experience alone.

My approach to therapy

I have a great deal of experience and skill holding space for others who are struggling to find their flow in life. Clients describe me as genuine, sincere, compassionate, patient, honest, straight-forward and humorous. I am very present and do not withhold. I offer my own opinions, thoughts and perspectives while trusting and respecting your own.

What you can expect from me

A greater sense of clarity

Emotional Regulation

Interpersonal Communication skills

A sense of hope and direction

Understanding of dysfunctional behavior patterns
