Background and approach

Michael works with mood and personality concerns and offers coaching around career and life purpose as part of his practice. In sessions he uses methods drawn from client-centered work, cognitive-behavioral strategies, existential thinking, and psychodynamic ideas. That means conversations focus on what matters to the person, practical steps to change thinking and behavior, and looking at patterns rooted in past experience.

He keeps language straightforward and actions concrete so parents can try new strategies right away. Michael has experience across outpatient, residential, and inpatient settings. He has worked with adolescents and adults with depression, anxiety, trauma-related concerns, disruptive or impulse-control challenges, substance issues, and personality symptoms.

His training and background inform how he helps people set goals and make steady progress. People seeking help start with small, manageable steps. Michael emphasizes building insight, identifying values, and encouraging self-care.

He aims to make therapy accessible and focused on solutions that fit daily family life.

Therapy approaches and how they work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful therapeutic relationship. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what matters most to them so they can make choices that fit their family life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It uses simple tools and exercises to change unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors, which can reduce anxiety, mood problems, and stress at home.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, history, and preferences and then try methods that suit those needs. This is a collaborative process where methods can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules. These options let people check in between sessions, access support from home, and choose the style of communication that feels most comfortable. The variety of formats supports continuity and flexibility while working toward clear, practical goals.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
