Michael has been extremely helpful in guiding me towards recovery from trauma. It has been a very short space of time and I feel a lot more confident and positive, he is very empathetic, he does not just seem like a councillor, it is like having a trusted friend to talk to, I have always thought having good friends is the best therapy, and it shows through his approach to his work,I was always concerned that some therapist might take a more logical analytical approach, which he does but it does not make me feel like a "patient" which I think is extremely beneficial in recovering from traumatic situations, I highly recommend Michael to anyone suffering or in need of guidance. It has built my confidence in using my own resources to recover, not only relying upon a therapist :)

I have 20 years of experience and I enjoy working with individuals and couples who struggle with the tangled web of interpersonal conflicts and with those who have limited insight about their roll in the struggles whether in friendships, marriage, home, work, or with peers. My passion is walking along side people as they journey through life.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic and person centered approach. I will tailor my treatment to meet your unique and specific need.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

He's really nice and he listens to everything you have to say while making a professional decision. He truly knows his stuff. He made me glad that I came to betterhelp.
I came here after my therapist of 10 years suddenly passed away. I had a strong bond with him. Mike has helped me out by getting me thru my grieving process as well as taking over for my old therapist. He is kind and very caring. He responds fairly quickly as well.
So far he's been a help factor to me.
