About Michael

License #: 38879

If you are experiencing difficulties with anxiety, OCD, PTSD, and related conditions, I am passionate about helping you to achieve the changes you wish to make in your life. I seek to provide a safe, warm, and affirming environment where your individual experience is validated. However, I do not believe that warmth alone is enough to competently treat anxiety disorders. When looking for a doctor to treat a broken arm you certainly want a provider who is kind and empathetic, but unfortunately even the most empathetic doctor will be ineffective if they do not know how to set a bone and cast an arm!

My Therapeutic Approach

Luckily, there are efficacious, well-researched treatments available for anxiety disorders and related conditions. Many of my clients have received alternative forms of psychotherapy that they have found to be insufficiently effective, prompting them to contact me. I first consider using evidence-based treatments with a history of rigorously tested efficacy. This work can be difficult but extremely rewarding. I find meaning and enjoyment in helping individuals overcome their fears, resulting in therapeutic interactions that tend to be genuine, fulfilling, and productive. My goal is to make myself irrelevant to you as quickly as possible, and to help you reclaim your life from anxiety, PTSD, or OCD!
