What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

The first session will hopefully feel like an organic conversation. We can start by getting to know each other and establish some background information that might be helpful moving forward.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Michael is very kind and welcoming. He creates an inviting atmosphere and wants all clients to feel comfortable, especially and they discuss vulnerable topics and situations.
