Hi there, I'm Michael!

Whether dealing with depression, anxiety, difficulty navigating complex relationships, or healing from trauma, my goal is to provide you with a safe space where difficult thoughts and feelings can be shared and we can work collaboratively to identify and walk your intuitive path to acceptance and growth.

My focus

I prioritize exploring how systemic/environmental stress and trauma impact those with marginalized identities. My areas of focus include racial and gender identity, anxiety, depression, and relationship & family issues. I use a strengths-based and psychodynamic approach with a trauma and attachment lens.

My approach

I believe success in therapy has so much to do with the relationship between client and provider. I hope that we can build enough trust to be honest and challenge one another.
