Kenneth is a great therapist, friend and mentor. He's helped me through a lot of big life changes and stay "clear minded" throughout my economic hardship. He's a great therapist and I would recommend him to anyone who's going through a lot and has gone through a lot of trauma. He's also really funny and appreciates my sense of humor, which makes me feel like we connect very well.

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.

I enjoyed my time with Kenneth Michaels. He offered me great advice and new perspectives that will stick with me long term. I never felt judged and I’d recommend him to others.
Kenneth has been a great support system during the toughest challenges I have encountered mentally and emotionally in my life. His attentiveness, kindness, and encouraging words have impacted my life. I credit him for helping me push through when I felt like I couldn’t. He has helped me tremendously
I value the time I’ve spent with Kenneth. I have concerns long term about the payment model and costs of therapy without Insurance, but I’m 100% satisfied with Kenneth and his care.
While we have only met twice L, I’ve very much enjoyed chatting with Kenneth - he listens first while still taking time to ask thoughtful questions. Not only have I enjoyed our first two sessions... I think what’s most important is I look forward to many more in the future.
