Hi, I’m Mike. I bring over 10 years of experience to supporting clients in therapy. I graduated from Case Western Reserve University and have worked in a variety of settings, from traditional therapy to crisis intervention in the ER, as well as developing programs for underserved communities. I also have extensive training in working with the LGBTQ+ community and bring personal understanding as a gay man.
Do you desire healing from past events, struggling in life, overwhelmed and not feeling like you're reaching your potential? Every person is unique, and I honor that by emphasizing your God-given strengths and providing you with tools for success in life. You are the expert on your life, but sometimes having a supportive partner in exploring your life can help. If you're close to the Hilliard, Westerville or Johnstown, I'd love to meet you in person. I can also see you online. This comes in handy with Ohio winter weather.
I believe all people are capable of change and growth, with the right support and encouragement. I'll be there to empower you to overcome growth barriers and be there to rejoice in your successes. I'm honored to be that collaborative partner. I invite you to reach out, take that first step towards wholeness in your life.
I believe healing happens in connection — when you feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow.
My practice is inclusive and affirming of all cultural, religious, sexual, LGBTQIA+, and neurodiverse identities, providing a safe, nonjudgmental space where healing/growth can flourish.
I am a level 2 trained trauma trained professional who specializes in treating individuals (10+) couples and families.
Above all, my goal is to create a space where you feel safe, accepted, and empowered to heal — a space where you can explore who you are and what you need, at your own pace and in your own way.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Columbus
Finding the right therapist in Columbus starts with getting clear on what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, or a life transition, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a meaningful difference. Common provider types include licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed independent social workers (LISWs), psychologists, and psychiatrists — each with different training and areas of focus. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach and decide if they're a good match.
Columbus has a large and diverse provider community, with therapists practicing across neighborhoods like Short North, German Village, Worthington, Upper Arlington, and Hilliard — as well as many who offer virtual sessions. When narrowing your options, consider what matters most: a provider's specialty, whether they offer in-person or virtual visits, and their availability. Many providers also offer a free phone consultation so you can see if it's a good fit before committing to a session.
Therapy in Columbus can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see estimated session costs before you book — and your out-of-pocket expense may be as low as $0 per session, though costs vary based on your location and exact coverage. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits your needs and your budget.
