Hi there, I'm Michael!

My work is rooted in helping people improve their relationships—with themselves and others. Many clients come to therapy struggling with challenges related to family, friends, partners, or work. I believe that when a person truly understands themselves, they gain the clarity and strength to create healthy, fulfilling relationships.

My focus

I work with individuals navigating life transitions or crises that have disrupted their ability to cope. These are pivotal moments—times when old tools are no longer enough. In these moments of vulnerability, we begin the process of self-discovery, tapping into resilience, strength, confidence, and a more authentic way of living.

My approach

I take an eclectic, individualized approach to therapy, drawing from evidence-based and experiential modalities to support each client's unique journey. Whether addressing deep-rooted patterns or present-day challenges, I adapt my approach to meet you where you are. The goal is always to help you uncover more of your true self.
