ABOUT
Choosing to embark on the path of healing can be difficult, and I applaud you for taking the first step. Hi, I'm Michael, a psychotherapist, providing individual therapy and couples therapy. In my practice, I strive to create a warm and welcoming space for you to explore the challenges in your life and relationships. As a relational psychodynamic therapist, I integrate psychoanalytic approach, Attachment Theory and Motivational Interviewing. In my work with couples, my approach leans towards Relational Psychodynamic Therapy and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) for couples. I believe a warm, compassionate approach can guide people toward healing, deepen self-understanding, and serve as a catalyst for emotional growth and a more meaningful and engaging life. I look forward to supporting you on your journey towards well-being and connecting with your authentic Self.
— Tomas Transtromer, "The Clearing"

The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.

New Clients
Address the suffering that causes you pain and heal the wounds that lay hidden under the surface.

Reaching Out
Deciding to begin therapy is a significant step, and it's normal for many people to spend a year or more contemplating starting or not before taking action. Once you’re ready, my aim is to make your journey as seamless as possible. My goal is to build a trusted relationship with you in a confidential environment where you can openly discuss your most sensitive concerns, free from shame, guilt, or judgment. I am committed to providing a safe space where you can explore the most challenging aspects of your life, those that may be too difficult to share with even your closest friends and family.
