Michael specializes in adolescent counseling, men’s issues, and trauma recovery.
Michael’s experience working with adolescents and men from a variety of backgrounds has ignited his passion for helping them to overcome problems ranging from anger to trauma. Michael believes that counseling is a process. One that must start with meeting you where you are in order to figure out where you would like to go. In that process, we find clarity, and through clarity we find peace, and through peace we find strength. Michael’s approach to counseling includes techniques from a number of disciplines and predominantly focuses on Cognitive Behavioral, Existential, Client-Centered, and Gestalt therapies.
Michael’s specialties include: Adolescent Counseling, Anger Management, Trauma Recovery, Men’s Issues, Communication Development for Fathers and Sons, Spiritual Formation, Group Counseling, and Marital Restoration.
Michael works with individuals, couples, and families that feel stuck in the hard places of life by helping them connect and communicate through deep authenticity. Michael holds his Master’s Degree in Clinical Counseling Psychology from Brenau University. He is happiest when spending time with his family and enjoys deep conversations, reading, and splitting wood.
“Life can be as hard as it is beautiful. We are all chasing the beauty and trying to figure out what to do with the hard stuff. Whether it be relationships, job, family, major shifts, or the personal hurts that we know we should talk about but always seem to keep to ourselves, the hard stuff is part of each of our lives. I am passionate about helping people learn how to move into the hard stuff well so they can come out the other side stronger and more at peace.”
