More about Michael

  • 6 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPCC, LCMHC

I am licensed in North Carolina and Ohio with 7+ years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, career difficulties & depression. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

I help people live a more mindful, embodied, and spiritual life in support of their mental health. I love working with individuals passionate about personal growth, holistic health, and spiritual development. I guide clients from states of fear and sadness to stillness, acceptance, and aliveness. I also assist clients in identifying and releasing stuck emotions, and developing healthy habits.

I’m really excited to share with you what I’ve learned over seven years as a mental health professional and over 20 years as a student of life on my own healing & spiritual journey. My goal is to inspire you, help you align with who you truly are, and encourage you to fully express that in the ways you choose. If this sounds interesting to you, get in touch with me and let’s discuss how I can be of service.

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.
