He speaks English and brings nine years of overall experience to his clinical work. Michael centers sessions on the person in front of him and aims to create space for clear goals.

Background and approach

He draws on client-centered methods to listen closely and respond to what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ideas are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small, gradual changes in daily routines. He also offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as one of several approaches to address trauma and lingering distress.

Narrative and solution-focused techniques help people reframe painful stories and identify practical steps forward. Sessions may mix these approaches based on a person's needs and comfort level. Michael's background includes work in community mental health and school-based settings, providing individual and group support.

He has experience with a wide range of concerns from parenting and fatherhood issues to body image and sexuality topics. He pays careful attention to cultural influences and aims to treat people with respect and openness. People who come to Michael often want a clear plan and down-to-earth strategies.

He emphasizes teamwork and steady progress rather than quick fixes. If someone is ready to take a step toward change, he offers steady support and practical tools.

Online support

How his methods translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and tailoring sessions to what the person needs most, helping people feel heard and guiding goal setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used as an additional option to address trauma-related distress through structured processing techniques.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals and preferences, then suggest one or a mix of methods that fit. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone calls can be a lower-bandwidth alternative. Live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or times when typing feels more manageable. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep steady contact between sessions when needed.
