There's a point where pushing through on your own stops being resilience and starts just being exhausting. I'm Mike, a Licensed Professional Counselor working with adults and seniors navigating anxiety, trauma, panic, depression, and the kind of mood and identity questions that are hard to untangle alone. I'm LGBTQIA+ affirming and actively work with men who are ready to take their mental health seriously. I believe you already have strengths you may not be giving yourself credit for. Clients often describe me as direct, clear, and collaborative.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner at Heartland Mental Health Services, holding a Master of Science in Nursing from Walden University (2024). With over 15 years of registered nursing experience in Arizona — spanning inpatient and outpatient psychiatry, community mental health, crisis stabilization, substance-use treatment, and long-term care — I bring a compassionate, client-centered approach to every encounter. I specialize in the treatment of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, psychosis, substance use disorders, and chronic mental illness, providing comprehensive psychiatric assessments and medication management grounded in individualized, evidence-based, collaborative care. I am committed to fostering a supportive, stigma-free environment that empowers clients to take an active role in their healing and long-term wellness.
My approach to therapy is shaped by a rich blend of professional training and lived experience. Over the past 10 years, I’ve supported clients while also integrating insights from my previous career and life journey, allowing me to meet people with empathy, understanding, and authenticity.


Headway helps you find calm with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
