Michael Skoda

Hi I’m Mike Skoda. I have a passion for helping people from all walks of life improve their lives and feel better! I feel grateful for the opportunity to be a positive influence on the communities I serve, and I'm grateful to say that I have been serving clients as a counselor in the State of Ohio since 2010. I’m a Master’s level counselor who specializes in couples, family counseling, parenting skills, ADHD, OCD, trauma including complex traumas. I am a Level 3 Gottman-Method Couples and Marriage Counselor. In addition, I have completed several Workshops and have expertise in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), EMDR, CBT, DBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Exposure Response and Prevention (ERP) Therapy for Obsessive Compulsive Disorders.

I have a relational, humanistic, and collaborative counseling approach. Together we will develop a plan to help you as you begin to take actionable steps to improve your life. I believe strongly in helping to coach you through difficult situations and to practice new skills in session together that you can take back out into your life. These practical skills will allow you to experience growth in your life and relationships! Warmly, Mike

Clients can expect to take away from sessions with me new insights, techniques, and action steps to start to feel better and to have a renewed sense of personal effectiveness and renewed personal power.
