Hello, I’m Michael, a person-centered therapist dedicated to creating a warm, supportive space where healing and growth can happen. I’m an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT), helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges.

My approach is rooted in attachment theory, and I often draw from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method when working with couples. These frameworks support clients in understanding their relationship dynamics, building emotional connection, and communicating more effectively.

I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a powerful, evidence-based therapy for processing trauma and reducing distressing symptoms. I integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work and mindfulness-based strategies to help clients deepen self-awareness, foster internal balance, and stay grounded in the present moment.

My therapeutic style is grounded in person-centered therapy–meeting clients with authenticity and compassion while creating a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings. I work collaboratively to help you find balance, clarity, and meaning in your life.

I have experience supporting clients with relationship conflicts, depression, anxiety, PTSD, men’s issues, behavioral challenges, self-esteem, and addiction. I also support clients working through grief and loss, divorce or separation, life transitions, identity-related questions, and attachment-related trauma. 

As a husband and father of two young children, I bring real-life understanding to the joys and stressors of parenting and family life, offering supportive guidance to families navigating a variety of challenges.

Wherever you are on your journey, I’m here to support you on your path to healing and growth.
