Life is a rather fascinating journey! I’m grateful that I do not know anybody who’s walked through it in a straight line. Sometimes, the journey is light and full of joy; other times, it is painful and full of weight. While everyone is unique and no two people’s experiences are identical, we discover many similarities and a good dose of common humanity when we explore ourselves deeply. And the deeper we explore, the juicier the discoveries!
"The joy is in the journey."
My work is Brief Holistic Counseling/Coaching. We will typically work together for a combination of six to nine months or 8-12 sessions, depending on your treatment plan and what is needed. You will be given "homework assignments" to work on between sessions. These "assignments" will be a mix of internal(reflection/awareness) and external(research/actions) to aid in your growth and development. My experience over the last thirty years has demonstrated that the work between sessions is what creates the momentum, hope, and focus to achieve what we are working on in such a short amount of time. This is what makes Brief Holistic Counseling so effective! When we have an "expiration date", we become highly motivated to succeed and shift the challenges we are experiencing!

"Michael is the person you want to work with if you want to make real changes in your life. He is not full of fluff and he won't take five sessions just to talk about your past, he is going to get to the root of the issue and help you resolve it. What is great about Michael is that he is able to describe things to you in multiple ways, he wants to make sure you "get" what he is saying so he is great at offering real-world examples and analogies to help illustrate what you are working through."
