A note from Michael
I am a compassionate Licensed Associate Counselor committed to creating a warm, safe space where individuals can explore challenges, build coping skills, and grow. Using a cognitive-behavioral approach, I specialize in supporting children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, grief, depression, low self-esteem, life transitions, LGBTQ+ concerns, and vocational stress. I pride myself on my empathetic and inclusive nature, working with clients of all genders, races, and orientations. Therapy is a powerful journey — and I would be honored to walk alongside you with genuine care and support.
