Being the best version of yourself starts here.

Being the best version of yourself starts here.

Life’s too short to settle for anything less than extraordinary!

Life may feel overwhelming right now, and you might be hard on yourself, believing that something is inherently wrong or that you should be managing everything better, no matter how tough things get. You may feel empty, unsuccessful, anxious, or stressed, struggling with thoughts of being “not good enough,” unworthy, helpless, or worthless. You may have lost your spiritual grounding or your north star. If any of this resonates with you, know that there’s hope—you can transform your life through therapy.

While we all deserve to love and be loved, our experiences with relationships growing up can challenge our ability to stay connected to others over the course of our lives. Relationship education can help couples and individuals understand how to build relationship foundations that they can build upon. Understanding the science of attachment, how to grow emotional intelligence, and personality differences are invaluable for helping you and your relationship thrive. With relationship foundations you can experience those transformative “aha moments” where real change happens.

Michael’s many resources – books, poetry, music, online courses, seminars and retreats – will help you learn with your head and express with your heart.

We are more than the sum of our parts. While psychology is crucial for helping us understand ourselves and facilitating change, it does not explain or address the spiritual core of who we are. Psychospiritual therapy, on the other hand, creates a foundation in love that enables us to evolve beyond the fear rooted in our survival instincts. Psychospiritual Therapy is based on psychological science and theory while also integrating the ancient wisdom of loving spirituality.
