More about Michael

  • 8 years' experience
  • Male
  • LMFT

I am a licensed therapist in Florida with 8 years of professional experience in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working in a variety of mental health settings, including residential, partial hospitalization, and intensive outpatient facilities for both mental health and substance abuse. This diverse experience has equipped me with the skills and insight needed to support clients with high-intensity needs and complex issues.

I specialize in helping clients manage stress and anxiety, cope with addictions, navigate relationship issues, and build motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. My approach is grounded in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I am trained in a variety of theoretical orientations including but not limited to: CBT, Person Centered Therapy, Couples therapy, Family therapy, and many other individual therapy modalities. I believe in the importance of creating a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and valued.

In our sessions, I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I understand that taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage, and I am proud of you for getting started. Together, we will work towards achieving your personal goals and enhancing your overall well-being.

There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.
