Additionally, he works extensively with men, focusing on issues like men's mental health, grief, and the societal pressures that can affect emotional expression and well-being. His person-centered approach is deeply empathetic, ensuring that each client feels valued and understood in their therapeutic journey. Alongside his work with LGBTQIA+ individuals and men, Michael also has a special interest in helping people navigate trauma, particularly those dealing with PTSD. Drawing from a range of evidence-based interventions such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Exposure Therapy, Michael empowers his clients to process trauma in a safe and structured manner. These therapeutic modalities allow clients to manage anxiety, reduce intrusive thoughts, and regain control over their emotional responses.
Michael’s therapeutic style emphasizes the importance of collaboration and trust in the therapist-client relationship. His approach is rooted in a strengths-based perspective, helping individuals recognize and leverage their inner resources to create lasting change. He takes pride in providing tailored, individualized care that respects each person’s unique path toward healing and growth. Outside of his clinical work, Michael enjoys video games, sci-fi films, anime, manga, and reading.
