Welcome! My purpose as your counselor is to empower you to discover what truly motivates you. I’m deeply committed to helping people live more fulfilling and satisfying lives. I believe that every person possesses unique strengths, talents, and abilities—and my goal is to help you uncover these qualities and build a life of purpose and meaning. Helping others is my true passion, and I feel incredibly grateful to do this work every day. I specialize in working with individuals experiencing life transitions or significant changes—whether it’s a career shift, marriage or divorce, relocation, educational transitions, parenting challenges, or grief and loss. Life transitions affect everyone differently. Some may feel fear, uncertainty, or resistance, while others may face change with excitement. Regardless of where you are emotionally, I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can freely express yourself and explore what these changes mean for you. Through this process, we’ll work together to find clarity, confidence, and joy in your journey. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Pennsylvania, a Certified Co-occurring Disorders Specialist, and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Pennsylvania State University and a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Shippensburg University. Over the past 14+ years, I’ve worked in a variety of therapeutic settings including family-based therapy, outpatient and intensive outpatient mental health and substance use programs, residential treatment, and private practice trauma therapy. Outside the Office In my free time, I enjoy being active outdoors—walking, running, hiking, kayaking—and spending time with loved ones. I also raise service dogs, attend dirt track races, meditate, and love curling up with a good book. Family and friendship are at the heart of my life, and I find joy in making memories every step of the way.

The goal of therapy is to facilitate personal growth and help you improve your life.

I have seen people in almost all professional and community arenas (even jails). My work has been a mix of public and private sector involvement, including 11 years of community mental health service and 30 years of individual practice. I have extensive experience in both home- and office-based psychotherapy, program development, clinical supervision, and clinical innovation. Special populations have included people with developmental disabilities, children and adolescents at risk for out-of-home placements, people with substance abuse issues, and geriatric populations; all have experienced various forms of grief, loss, and trauma while navigating the simple task of living and surviving. If you modify the title of Johnny Cash's song I've Been Everywhere to I've Done Everything (except prison work), that pretty much sums up my years of professional experience.

As a seasoned therapist with diverse experience across community mental health, intensive treatments, corrections, and outpatient therapy settings, I bring a wealth of knowledge and compassion to my practice. My journey has been shaped by working with clients navigating complex life transitions and those who may feel 'lost' in their journey. With a client-centered approach, I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore their challenges, discover their strengths, and embark on a journey of self-discovery and growth. Together, we will work collaboratively to navigate the uncertainties of life and create a path towards healing and fulfillment.

Are you having a hard time and in need of someone to listen and help you figure things out? Then now is the time to begin therapy. Hello, I’m Michael Zwizanski, a licensed therapist based in Philadelphia, working with individual clients throughout Pennsylvania. I hold a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Thomas Jefferson University and I’ve been honored to support clients through a wide range of personal challenges and life transitions. I offer a safe, affirming space for clients to explore challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, family conflict, identity issues, and major life transitions. My practice is anti-racist, sex-positive, LGBTQ+ competent, and gender-affirming. I recognize my privilege as a cisgender, white, male professional and strive to position myself as an equal collaborator in the therapeutic process, fostering mutual respect and growth. My approach integrates attachment-based therapy, parts work, somatic awareness, and trauma-informed care to help clients understand the emotional roots of their struggles and develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. I have experience supporting transgender clients through all stages of social, medical, and legal transition, and I am also competent in working with ethically non-monogamous individuals. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in the entertainment industry. Now, I provide therapy to artists, musicians, actors, and entrepreneurs, understanding the unique pressures and creative self-doubt they experience. I help clients navigate both the drive for self-expression and the obstacles that can impede personal growth. I also specialize in helping clients navigate major life transitions—such as becoming a parent, getting married or divorced, changing careers, or coping with health challenges and grief. No matter the transition, I’m here to support you in finding clarity, healing, and a path forward. Whether you're feeling anxious, stuck, or simply seeking a space to grow, I would be honored to support you on your path.

Let’s face it, life isn’t always easy. Just the fact that you’re reading this shows that you’re looking for some relief, some answers. The good news is that you don’t have to carry your burden alone. By sharing it, and learning more skillful ways of dealing with your life’s obstacles, you’ll soon realize that there truly is a light at the end of the tunnel. I have a profound respect for the strength of the human spirit and am often in awe of my own clients as they rise above what's holding them back and learn to find their own empowerment.
