I believe that a multicultural, humanistic approach, that values and finds strength in our unique identities, is a crucial part of the therapeutic process, and is the foundation of my work as a therapist.
Hello! My name is Michael and I am a therapist with a passion for helping clients overcome mental health challenges, life stressors, and anything else that is interfering with your ability to find happiness and wellness on a daily basis. I believe that all of us are on a journey to become the best versions of ourselves that we can be, and I also know that we sometimes need support and guidance along the way. I enjoy working with clients of all ages, and particular areas of interest and populations I enjoy working with include ADHD (especially adults with ADHD), OCD, grief, depression, and college students.

Your anxiety just won’t go away! Every day you’re plagued with incessant what-ifs and worries about what others think. The constant striving for perfection is exhausting, as is that judgmental voice in your head that keeps telling you what you did wrong or how you’re not enough. You can’t remember the last time you had a full night’s sleep. You have tried everything, and nothing has helped. Your brain just won’t stop, and if someone tells you to “relax” one more time, you’ll lose it.

Multicultural Therapists

What type of therapy is multicultural therapy?

Multicultural therapy is not tied to any specific therapy; rather, it is an overarching approach to therapy that aims to acknowledge and address the influence that factors like race, gender identity, and cultural background can have on someone’s life. Multicultural approaches can be applied to CBT, psychodynamic therapy, and others, and can be practiced with individuals, couples, families, or groups.

What can I expect from multicultural therapy?

Multicultural counseling should be tailored to the client’s unique identity and cultural needs. Such approaches often prioritize the building of trust so that the client feels comfortable exploring various aspects of their identity and any challenges caused by mismatches between their identity and the dominant culture. Beyond that, the format and timeline of therapy will be heavily influenced by the therapist’s preferred therapy approach and the specific problems for which the client sought therapy.

Can multicultural therapy help treat trauma?

Yes. Cultural factors such as racial background, gender identity and or sexuality, and immigration or refugee status can influence both whether someone experiences trauma and how they cope afterward. Multicultural approaches to trauma-informed care will be aware of these influences, helping the client recognize how their response to trauma may be shaped by their cultural background and identify coping mechanisms that take their identity into account.

What are the benefits of seeing a multicultural therapist?

Members of minority groups who seek therapy are sometimes frustrated by providers who don’t understand their cultural background or dismiss the ways in which race, gender, or other facets of their identity influence their lived experience. Seeing a multicultural therapist can help these clients feel seen, understood, and able to develop solutions to life challenges that take their upbringing, beliefs, and past experiences into account.
