Great to meet you!

Hi, I'm Michael Valverde, LSCSW! I received my Master's degree from the University of Kansas and I have 6.5 years of crisis work experience. I specialize in anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I'm committed to accompanying you on your journey towards healing and personal growth.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My therapy approach is grounded in evidence-based practice, primarily focusing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I provide a supportive environment for clients to explore thoughts and emotions openly. Through ACT techniques, we develop coping skills, enhance self-awareness, and align actions with values for effective and meaningful change.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients can expect to develop practical coping strategies, gain insight into their thoughts and behaviors, and discover ways to align their actions with personal values. Within a supportive and nonjudgmental environment, I foster collaboration and empowerment, guiding clients towards achieving their therapeutic objectives and facilitating meaningful transformations in their lives.

Michael's style is
