I am Michael Gwanjaye, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with individuals between 21 and 75 years struggling with Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, and Borderline Personality Disorder. Therapeutic relationship building is a core component of my practice.
I have a background in Marriage and Family Therapy and training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, trauma, Emotion Focused Therapy, Attachment Theory, EFT tapping, Mindfulness, and Polyvagal Theory to help clients move away from shame and guilt based patterns resultant from "big and little t" traumas.
Our relationship to self is the most important one that we will ever have. A bond with a supportive therapist who witnesses and understands us is instrumental in helping us to improve that relationship, and in helping us to make changes to the way we relate to ourselves and the world around us. Trauma, attachment issues, toxic families of origin, oppression, grief, and neurodiversity are just some just some factors that make it more difficult to live in the present and find fulfillment in life. I have ten years of clinical experience and have successfully treated clients with depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar, and ADHD/ASD/OCD.

I often use Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapies in my practice.
My clinical experiences have involved working with adults and adolescents impacted by mental health disorders and co-occurring mental health disorders. Within these age ranges, I have worked with the following populations: veterans, military, military families, civilians, neurodivergent, minority, unsheltered and unhoused, and LGBTQIA2S+. I am also a sex-positive, kink- and poly- friendly therapist.

Through a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness techniques, we will work together to overcome anxiety and OCD.
I specialize in delivering evidence-based treatment for anxiety disorders. The science is clear on what therapy works best for these issues, yet often clients who need it most never access the right type of care. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) treatment is considered the gold standard, and while many providers implement various CBT tools and techniques, they are not incorporated in a structured way as the research indicates. With over a decade of experience and thousands of hours delivering CBT treatments, I have cultivated a profound understanding on how to help folks with these issues.

I use mindfulness to help clients be more grounded, emphasize strength and reduce stress.
Everyone has the innate capacity to grow through difficulties and my goal is to support and empower you to connect to your inherent inner resources. I work with adults struggling with life transitions, depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship issues, self esteem, divorce, stress, and behavioral addictions such as porn and shopping. I believe that growth occurs through caring, compassion and learning to reconnect with the wisdom of your body. We will build on your strengths and shed the negative messages of dominant systems. We will discover what you really care about to establish loving connections to yourself and others.

My relational therapy employs Mindfulness meditation, Somatic (body based) therapy, ACT, DBT
Life can be difficult and painful at times but it doesn't have to involve so much suffering. How may we find the calm stillness in the eye of our storm so as to relate to our mind and our present experience compassionately and even learn and grow from it? I invite you to open to your life in a new way: a way that relieves your suffering and promotes your health and expands your awareness. Through mindfully listening to the body and courageously opening and relating to the uncomfortable/painful, somatic therapy provides a practice of gentle self-exploration toward discovering your connection to your truth, purpose and life.

I am extensively trained in a variety of evidence-based treatments, including CBT, mindfulness and compassion-based treatments, and trauma-focused treatments (CPT and PE), and I am able to tailor my treatment approach to address your unique needs.
On the surface, you seem to have it all together, but inside, you’re overwhelmed, burned out, and stuck in an exhausting loop of overthinking and perfectionism. Maybe the weight of anxiety, self-doubt, or past traumas is holding you back, and you’re craving clarity and a sense of peace. You want to quiet the racing thoughts, set boundaries, and reconnect with what truly matters, but you feel unsure how to start. Sound familiar? Together, we can help you find relief, gain clarity, and create a life that feels aligned, fulfilling, and authentically yours.

I offer authentic, collaborative, compassionate and strengths-based telehealth counseling services for individuals and couples.

I am particularly well-known in the community for assisting young adults build and navigate independent living skills. My style is to listen and to engage with your goals in mind.

My therapeutic approach is cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and I incorporate mindfulness and acceptance-based approaches.
I enjoy working with people with people from diverse backgrounds with a variety of concerns. Are you experiencing anxiety, intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, excessive fear, and/or problems related to your substance use? I want to help you improve your health and wellbeing. I know it can be difficult to share about personal experiences like these with a new person, so it's important to me to build a trusting relationship with you to work on your concerns.

Using a humanistic and holistic approach, I tailor therapy to each individual’s needs, incorporating techniques such as Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral, Solution-Focused, Jungian Psychology, and more.
I support individuals experiencing relationship issues, depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, parenting challenges, and trauma, including intergenerational and religious/spiritual trauma. I also support couples in creating authentic and meaningful connections while honoring individuality. Whether you’re a high-achieving professional navigating stress and expectations or a stay-at-home dad managing family dynamics, stress can affect everyone. Life transitions or significant events can also often bring up challenging emotions like fear, anger, or sadness, leaving you feeling overwhelmed or stuck.

Depth psychology is my theoretical orientation and I also utilize the skill building modalities of evidence-based practices such as CBT and Mindfulness to help my clients restructure cognitions and recalibrate experience.
I am a seasoned therapist with a solid background of training in counseling psychology and I keep a very enthusiastic learning edge on perspectives and developments in psychotherapy. I can always find a way to generate an earnest and stimulative approach to working with clients in therapy. I believe that persons seeking therapy hope to find someone who has a mature range of life experience, sophisticated knowledge of the therapeutic process, a tested repertoire of counseling skills and the ability to provide the anticipatory guidance that fosters self-determination and meaningful life changes. I am confident I have these attributes.

Maybe past traumas or painful experiences still shape the way you see yourself. I help people from all walks of life heal from the past, rebuild self-trust, and step into confidence, clarity, and deep self-worth. This isn’t about coping or fixing—it’s about transforming. I help you to break free from trauma, self-sabotage, fear and stuck patterns—so you can fully own your worth and create a life that feels deeply aligned with your true self.

I also draw from Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness based therapy, and Interpersonal therapy.
I see the therapeutic process as a collaborative one. My approach is to provide a safe, warm and respectful space for my clients to navigate through any challenges they are experiencing, or areas they would like to improve upon in their own personal journey. Many times these obstacles may hinder an individual from moving forward. My role is to assist them in this process to move towards living a more fulfilling and whole life.

As a practitioner, I utilize mindfulness and somatic therapies in conjunction with other traditional evidence based modalities such as cognitive behavioral/dialectical behavioral therapies as well as acceptance and commitment therapy.
I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, OCD and trauma related issues. I specialize in relationship issues, anger management, self esteem, adjustment issues. In therapy, I will help you develop coping skills to adjust to life's challenges. My client-centered approach aims to join with you on the path toward healing and fulfillment. During difficult moments, it's crucial to have the support you need to navigate decisions and adversity. By creating a safe and non-judgmental space, this allows you to freely explore your thoughts, emotions, and concerns.

We offer CBT to shift thought patterns, ACT to build acceptance and mindfulness, IFS for deeper self-awareness, and more.
Imagine waking up without that heavy knot in your stomach. You move through your day with clarity, speak up without second-guessing, and finally feel calm in your body and mind. Therapy offers real tools—not just talk—to help you get there. But without support, anxiety often spirals into exhaustion, self-doubt, and overwhelm. If you’ve ever asked yourself “What is anxiety and how to overcome it,” you're not alone—and there are answers.

Unaddressed trauma as been the focus of my work, and I lean on mindfulness and the power of its practice to retrain the brain’s most reactive pathways.
Holding the present in session builds mutual trust and invites space for exploring patterned behaviors and embracing the deepest pains we construct so much of our lives to avoid. This collaboration requires a commitment to authenticity, personal awareness, and intentional risk-taking; healing is your process. I am only a facilitator of your self-knowledge.

I am honored to explore creating a culture with you of acceptance and change, as a mindfulness guide, collaborator, and fellow journeyer.
I help people develop resources to work more mindfully with life's constant changes. Aging, illness, death, identity transitions, relationships – all bring us face to face with fear, anxiety, and insecurity. The courage and wisdom to live through change and loss become possible with a clear, steady commitment to loving oneself and others. I work with my clients to become curious, have a sense of humor, notice grace, cultivate friendships, and embody kindness toward oneself and others.
