I am licensed in Michigan with 22 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, anger management, depression, & coping with life changes.
I focus on helping people change themselves for the better. I use specific, short-term, solution-focused treatment techniques based on insight and behavioral change. I work with a wide range of presenting problems and mood disorders including depression / grief, anxiety/phobias, anger management, adjustment, bipolar and obsessive-compulsive disorders. I focus on rapport and utilization of a client's strengths as a therapeutic foundation.
My role is to facilitate real change in people by helping them to hear what they need to hear, in a way that they are able to accept it, even if it is difficult. This acceptance of reality is critical to creating permanent positive changes in people's lives.
I believe that the mind and body are deeply connected, and that optimal mental health cannot be achieved without proper nutrition and physical health. I also believe in the power of the conscious as well as the unconscious mind to relieve symptoms and make lasting changes.
Additional areas of focus: Caregiver issues and stress, Communication problems, Life purpose, Men's issues, Mood disorders, Self-love
Clinical approaches: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy

Michael was a great listener and was able to communicate with me about my experiences and feelings in a professional and positive manner. He gave me great insight and advice about how to move forward and stay positive. Reminded me to be sure to take care of myself in the process. I am so glad I started this process and am excited for the next session. The journaling is a great part of this process too, to be able to write it down and share with my Therapist.. LOVE this!
