Dr. Michael Black, CO Psychologist PSY.0001906

About Michael

Dr. Michael Black works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, family tensions, depression, and life transitions. He keeps things straightforward and practical, offering a calm presence that helps people take the next steps.

He is licensed in Colorado as CO Psychologist PSY.0001906 and brings 20 years of clinical experience to each meeting. Sessions begin with listening. He asks clear questions and helps people name what feels most urgent.

Background and approach

Together they set simple, manageable goals and track small changes over time. He adapts his style to match each person's needs rather than following one fixed method. Dr.

Black uses approaches that focus on how people connect and how thoughts shape feelings and actions. That means working on communication patterns, understanding attachment and emotional responses, and challenging unhelpful thinking when useful. He also draws on client-centered and existential ideas to support meaning and personal values.

Many clients come for help with parenting, family problems, blended family challenges, or issues around intimacy and commitment. He also addresses caregiver stress, grief, forgiveness, and problems tied to family of origin. He offers coaching-style support for career and executive concerns when that fits the goals.

Sessions are conducted in English and he accepts international clients. Dr. Black emphasizes practical tools you can use between meetings and a respectful, empathetic atmosphere during them.

How therapeutic approaches and online sessions work together

Dr. Black commonly draws on Attachment-Based Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships and early bonds shape current reactions and helps people improve connection and communication. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors, offering concrete tools to change patterns that increase anxiety or depression.

He approaches treatment collaboratively. Early sessions are used to learn what matters most to the client and to try approaches that match those goals. Over time he adjusts methods based on what is helpful, so clients and therapist choose the best path together rather than sticking to one fixed plan.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy family schedules or to work with someone who lives far away. They also allow for quick check-ins between longer sessions and for using written notes or exercises that fit each persons routine.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
