Is your relationship facing challenges that seem insurmountable? Are you struggling to overcome the lingering effects of childhood trauma? Michael Evans offers a transformative therapeutic journey tailored to your unique needs. Michael is Certified in Relational Life Therapy under the guidance of Terry Real. Drawing from RLT principles, his sessions are centered around cultivating authentic connections and fostering healthy communication. As a former RLI trainer, Michael has worked with therapists from around the world who are working to become certified in RLT and offering individual Case Consultations.
Furthermore, Michael is trained in and incorporates the groundbreaking techniques of Post Induction Therapy (aka. The Meadows Model) by Pia Mellody, emphasizing the significance of addressing underlying emotional issues and childhood trauma to achieve enduring emotional healing and personal growth.
Healing happens in community and in the context of healthy relationships. Evans Counseling Center is a place where all humans are valued, honored, and welcomed. We commit to provide a space of inclusivity and belonging; respect and dignity regardless of race, creed, color, sexual orientation or gender identification.
