New to Grow
Hi my name is Michael and I am very excited to be a part of your Therapy journey! I have a Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy and I have worked in several treatment facilities including a Nonprofit Women and family health center, an Addiction treatment facility, and a Digital health center for children and families. I will do everything in my power to help you find what you need and begin to heal and grow.
For our first session I like to focus on building trust and learning about you and your needs. I know that in order to achieve a positive therapeutic experience we must build trust and I need to find out your goals and as much information about yourself as you are willing to share.
I focus on creating a calm and caring environment where we can work together to achieve your goals. My strengths are honestly helping you find your strengths that you may not realize you have.
I have worked in the telehealth setting for the past 3 years with mainly adult clients for individual therapy. I focus on connecting with my clients to create a comfortable setting for them to share what is happening in their lives. I understand that revealing your past challenges and traumas is an incredibly challenging and brave thing to do. I want to provide the most support possible, find out your goals, and do everything I can to help you achieve your therapeutic goals.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is one of the most helpful and scientifically proven therapeutic treatments for patients. It provides an opportunity to not only work through anxiety, depression and more in the therapeutic setting, but also provides opportunities in day-to-day life as well.
EMDR
EMDR is a wonderful treatment for those who have experienced trauma and need to reprocess through past events in a safe space that will allow for healing that is long overdue. I am certified to provide EMDR and I have some very helpful tools in order to achieve successful treatment.
Integrative
I have spent the majority of my career mixing and matching different treatment methods in order to provide the best possible care for my clients. I want to create a treatment plan that adapts to you and your needs and not over-focus on a specific treatment modality.
