My name is Michael, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I enjoy working with a variety of people, including children, adolescents, adults, and the LGBTQ community. I also work with families and couples. I believe that what we believe about ourselves has great power and influence over our lives; harmful narratives about ourselves keep us trapped in self-destructive cycles and unhealthy relationships, and keep us from knowing our true selves.

Often, these negative beliefs began outside of ourselves but became internalized. Part of the work I do as a therapist is to come alongside you, discover whatever negative self-narratives you may be holding and how these are impacting you, and begin to challenge what may not be true. My goal is to help my clients challenge their inner critic, explore and strengthen their sense of self, and heal from the past.

Renowned psychoanalyst Carl Jung once said “I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become”, and I believe this 100%. I also work with individuals who are looking to explore their sexual or gender identity, or process faith deconstruction. My therapeutic style is warm and genuine, and I strive to create relationships that are authentic in a space that is open and nonjudgemental.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading fiction, cooking, and watching Bluey with my kids. If you feel like you connect with any part of what I’ve said, I would love to work with you.
