I believe the most effective care comes from a strong, collaborative partnership. I approach each person as more than a diagnosis, and I value honesty, accountability, and mutual respect in the work we do together. Change is possible—I’ve seen it firsthand—and I’m here to support you in becoming the version of yourself you want to be. My background includes both a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Nursing from Walsh University, and I bring that clinical foundation into thoughtful, individualized care.

Something keeps getting in the way - focus, old wounds, stress you can't quite name. I'm Michael, a Virginia LPC who works with adults around ADHD, trauma, and the weight men often carry without much support. Therapy with me is grounded, solution-oriented, and built for real change.

I have over 8 1/2 years of experience helping adults, children, and families learn how to heal and grow from dysfunction, trauma, addiction, and mental health issues of all kinds. I have worked with people from ages 3-80 years old so I have a multitude of experiences with all kinds of mental health issues including (trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, LGBTQIA+ related issues, and more). I am a licensed marriage and family therapist who has worked in community mental health and online.

As a mental health therapist, I am deeply committed to supporting individuals of all ages as they navigate life's challenges. With a degree in clinical mental health counseling from Marymount University and over 7 years of experience, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to my practice. My specialization in working with children and teens allows me to provide tailored support for young individuals facing issues such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and familial conflict.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience in mental health and substance misuse services. I also have a postgraduate Certificate in Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy, and am passionate about helping folks with post-psychedelic integration. Our therapeutic partnership begins with the understanding that you are a whole person — not a diagnosis, a symptom, or a set of circumstances. Together, we will explore how the intersections of identity, lived experience, trauma, mental health, and substance use shape your inner world and outer life across biological, psychological, social, and spiritual dimensions.
