Hi. My name is Michael Wilson. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Michigan. I have been in this field for more than 30 years. In my career I have treated individuals who are dealing with depression, anxiety, substance abuse (and related addictions), bi-polar disorder, schizophrenia, adjustment to chronic illness and vocational concerns.
Like all therapists, I have researched approaches that underlie my work. These include Acceptance and Comittment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Solution Focused Therapy. However, every person is unique and deserves a individualize approach to help them deal with their concerns. Sometimes it is a simple process of problem solving or common sense.
Our first session together will be primarily to gather information and get to know each other. Issues need to be defined before they can be attacked. It is also very important that you feel comfortable with me if therapy is to be successful.
