More about Michael
- 25 years' experience

- LPC
I am a Ph.D., with a professional counselor license in New Jersey. I received my doctorate in clinical psychology in 2006 and have 25 years of professional work experience in private practice. I have lectured and presented at numerous trainings and state and local conferences in the areas of domestic violence, anger management, and stress, and have served on several committees and collaboratives in those areas. I have treated adolescents and adults in both individual and couple therapy experiencing a broad range of mental health difficulties. I have experience in helping clients with depression and mood disorders, stress and anxiety, personality issues, relationship difficulties, parenting, behavior modification, anger management, domestic violence, and motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

About online counseling

- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
