Michael Valverde

Therapist

I believe therapy works best when you feel understood, respected, and never judged. My approach is collaborative and practical, helping you develop skills that you can use outside of our sessions rather than simply talking through problems week after week. I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an evidence-based approach that helps people respond differently to difficult thoughts and emotions while taking meaningful action toward the life they want to build.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, or overwhelming stress, my goal is to create a space where you can be honest about what you're experiencing and feel supported as we work toward lasting change. I strive to balance compassion with directness, offering both validation and practical strategies to help you move forward in a way that aligns with your values.

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over eight years of nursing experiencing, including more than six years in the intensive care. My experience caring for patients during some of the most difficult moments of their lives, along with my own journey with therapy and mental health treatment, inspired me to pursue a career in psychiatry.

I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, stress, and life transitions. I also enjoy helping children with anxiety, depression, and ADHD. My goal is to create a compassionate, judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful changes.

Life doesn't come with a roadmap — but building one is exactly what we do together.

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 17 years of experience working with youth, adults, families, and military communities across school, clinical, and community settings. I've sat with people in some of the most demanding circumstances imaginable — from inpatient mental health facilities to active military bases — and I've learned that what helps most isn't a script. It's connection, clarity, and a practical plan that actually fits your life.

I grew up on a farm, where I learned early that hard work and determination lead to better outcomes. That belief has shaped every corner of my career — and how I show up for every person I work with.

Hi, I’m really glad you’re here. If life feels heavy, overwhelming, or like you’ve been carrying too much on your own, you’re not alone. I work with teens (12+) and adults who are struggling with anxiety, stress, low mood, self-doubt, relationship challenges, or just feeling stuck and unsure of what’s next. Many of the people I work with are high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed on the inside. In our work together, you’ll have a calm, supportive space where you can finally exhale, feel heard without judgment, and start making sense of what you’re going through. We’ll work together at your pace to help you feel more grounded, understood, and confident in your life.
