Mike decided to enter the field of therapy after searching for and finding for himself in the therapeutic process, many of the answers that allowed for deep, personal transformation. Discovering the impact his growth had on his relationships became a significant inflection point in his life, such that he chose to dedicate himself to the growth of others.

Moving on beyond his first career as a genetic research scientist and close to a decade in the U.S. Air Force, Mike’s approach is deeply curious, energetically compassionate, and emotionally engaging. He puts high importance on the client’s ability to feel empowered, safe to be their authentic self and experience what it is to thrive, not just survive.

If Mike could tell you one thing right now:

“I believe that therapy is a gift that can only be given by a compassionate other. I want my clients to recognize their strengths and have a safe place to learn how to do what might be scary and trust that I can walk side by side through it with you. If you have been putting off therapy, now is the best time to give yourself that gift.”
