Welcome to Therapy in your PJs
My name is Mike. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I’ve been in practice for 16 years, the last two years have been exclusively online.
Throughout my career, my goal has been to help others to better understand the difficulties they are facing and find a path to work through those challenges. I accomplish this goal firstly by openly and without judgement, meeting the client where they are. My approach includes principles from multiple theorists, each having their own benefits dependent on the issues that are being faced. Our primary focus will be on the present, the here and now. That’s not to say we won’t look at events from the past in order to better understand the influence they are having on you now. We will look at past events and triggers for how they have informed the present, but we are in the present. We will work collaboratively to better understand current problems, we’ll set realistic goals for progress and work to develop skills necessary to not only overcome current issues but face future concerns as well. My areas of practice include depression, anxiety, stress, grief/loss and trauma as well as issues related to infertility and stage of life challenges.
Why Therapy in your PJs?
The truth is, I was skeptical at first. I had worked in direct contact with my clients since I was finishing grad school and would have argued that there was no substitute for face to face contact. The thing that changed (opened) my mind to the possibilities and the real value that could be found was from a significant event in my own life.
I can say honestly that I have seen the value that online counseling can offer. I’ve seen how it can create a mechanism to help overcome many of the challenges that go along with just starting the process. The worry / pressure of just showing up to an office; who might see you going into a “Therapist’s Office”.
