FROM MY CLIENTS
“Michael is a very special therapist. I am so lucky to have found him. Kind, funny, smart, he has been a deeply important part of my healing journey. I don’t know how I would have been able to navigate some of the toughest times of my life without him.”
“Michael is an expert in his field. In a short time, he has helped my marriage go from despair to hopeful. Over the coarse of a long term marriage my husband and I had drifted apart and found ourselves arguing more than talking. Michael has helped us find our way back to each other with his incredible intuitiveness. I credit Michael for bring laugher and love back into our home.”
