Something keeps pulling you back to the same place. The anxiety that spikes when the pressure builds, the relationship patterns you've tried to change but can't quite shift, or something from your past that still shows up in ways you didn't expect. I'm Michael, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 18 years of experience working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, and trauma. I've worked with a lot of people who thought they were permanently stuck and discovered they weren't. Clients often describe me as direct, grounded, and genuinely invested in lasting change.
I started my career in 2008 as a floor staff technician in group homes and mental health hospitals, gaining hands-on experience while working my way through college. I eventually became a college professor, clinical supervisor, and subject matter expert for the Department of Defense. Feel free to ask me any questions about my background!
We will use a fully comprehensive approach to help you find a second start. Hope and change are waiting for you!. Reach out to me, I'm here to help. Let's go through this together!
