Metro-Detroit Men’s Therapy Personalized, online therapy for men

Chances are that if you’re looking for therapy services then you might have been struggling for quite some time and finally have decided to give therapy a try. Congrats, this is often the hardest step, and as a fellow guy, I know hard it can be. I primarily work with “men’s issues”, aka, the way in which men deal with mental health concerns. I often start working with guys when some patterns or habits have now grown into overwhelming burdens that may be threatening things like our ability to work, maintain relationships, or keep emotions like anger and shame at bay. Additionally, most men are simply tired and do not feel like themselves, essentially feeling something has to change.

As guys, we need to tackle problems a little differently in therapy. Often, men get stuck in their head and find themselves in a negative feedback loop of shame, anger, and disconnection. Together, we will work on “parts” or the subpersonalities that work to manage, soothe, and sometimes block us from feeling deeper and communicating effectively. We will also work on dropping into the body and working on moving energy in order to help get us “unstuck”. My style of therapy may feel different than things you have tried in the past, I have found that it is important for men to get out of their head and try something that has a roadmap and a clear way of creating more depth in their life to achieve their goals.

Howdy,

My name is Mike, I was born and raised in Michigan and have had the pleasure and honor to serve men for the last ten years working as a therapist. I came upon the need to help men in therapy through some of my own retreat work around eight years ago and have worked hard ever since training in advanced therapy and figuring out the best ways to help men as we often have different needs in therapy. I have also been thrilled to offer ways to get out of the therapy room by offering on-going men’s groups and nature-based retreats several times a year. Over this next year, I plan to expand my practice by hiring some additional therapists to help serve more men and to start offering adventure therapy and teen summer retreats. Our mantra around here is to: End the suffering in men, to end the suffering caused by men.

In my free time, you can find me Up-North camping and hiking, as well as fly-fishing here in Michigan as well as on the rivers and mountain streams out West. I enjoy staying active in my CrossFit community, hosting friends for dinner, spending time with my family, and finding some quiet pockets of time to read, enjoy a cigar, and plan my next adventure. You might also get the chance to meet Luna, my 3-year old Goldendoodle who is in therapy dog training.

Feel free to explore my page and if it resonates with you, I would be happy to offer a free consultation to see if it would be a good fit. Simply click the link and fill out a quick consult form.

Cheers,
Mike
