More about Michaelo

  • 10 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMFT

I am a family and marriage therapist licensed in California with over 10 years of experience working as a psychotherapist . I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, psychotic disorders, substance use disorders, relationship issues, parenting problems, and career challenges.

My counseling style is eclectic, interactive and my interventions are tailored to the needs of my clients. I believe in treating my clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution focused, and family systems. I provide psychotherapy for California residents only.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
