My name is Michael Hutchinson, I go by Hutch, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida. My therapeutic orientation may be considered Constructivist, and is designed to meet the individual where they are at, while applying evidence-based techniques rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address disturbances of the mind, emotions, and behavior. I have been working and studying in the field of mental health since 2012, and have been actively licensed in the state of Florida since 2018. Over that time I have accrued experience in inpatient, outpatient, and community-based settings; always maintaining a focus on trauma, severe/ persistent mental illness, relationships, and many other facets of the human experience. In my practice, I always strive to promote self-determination, and have always considered clients to be the experts on themselves.

In addition to this, I have always valued continued education, and constantly seek new evidenced-based interventions and theories of change.
