I specialize in building relationships: helping parents get more cooperation and compliance from their children with less energy; helping couples beat the odds to stay happily married; and helping all types of artists connect to their creativity. My clients appreciate creativity and honest communication, value our relationship and time together and are hopeful about the future. They understand that true and lasting change comes from within and is the result of patience and concentrated effort - both in and between sessions. The process encourages clients to tell me what is and isn't working in our sessions.
I specialize in helping clients "find solutions that work and make changes that last." You will access your inner strengths and personal resources to achieve the sustained solutions that work best for you, in the shortest time possible, at a reasonable cost, so that you can live 'happily ever after'.
When you are ready to change, you can achieve positive and lasting results in six to 12 (approximately) 90 minute sessions. You can come to my comfortable office, or for a slightly higher fee, I make house calls. Your initial telephone consultation about services and rates is free.

Michael A Michnya's Groups
Becoming a Love and Logic Parent
The Becoming a Love & Logic Parent group is guided by five basic principles, each firmly grounded in research: 1. Preserve and enhance the child's self-concept. 2. Teach children how to own and solve the problems they create. 3. Share the control and decision-making. 4. Combine consequences with high levels of empathy and warmth. 5. Build the adult-child relationship. A key component of the program involves giving parents and educators a firm rationale for each of the above principles, as well as practical tools for following them.
