Hi there, I'm Michael!
My work typically includes several assessments (notably the Meyers-Briggs and the Gallup StrengthsFinder) and lots of targeted homework and tools/handouts.
My focus
My ideal clients include adolescents, adults in transition or struggling emotionally or relationally, and professionals looking to take their performance to the next level (including overcoming any emotional or relational challenges).
My approach
My approach is fundamentally strengths-based (think Gallup StrengthsFinder rather than weight training). I believe it is tremendously important to build treatment plans on strengths and the client's diagnosis. Clinically and theoretically, I utilize Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Client-centered, and Solution-Focused approaches.
