A Calm Oasis for In-Depth Healing and Growth

You've never known longing and frustration like this...

Demoralized and obsessed about unchanged, no-win situations, you feel confused, anxious, depressed, or depleted.

You don't know where to turn to escape toxic feelings of low self-worth and self-doubt. Feelings of guilt, shame, rejection, or resentment wash over you. You worry that you will begin to anxiously dread and avoid life. That if things keep going like this, you will lose hope and just 'get by' forever, depressed or afraid.

I'm here to tell you that you do not have to be stuck or always just getting by.

Therapy can unlock what is already inside you, waiting.

Trying to be certain of your place in this world, you do anything to please, hold yourself to harsh standards, try hard to 'do it right', and usually try to give even more. That leads to anxiety, bottled up emotions, fatigue, and forgetting who you are.

To move along, you need someone who has compassion for your anxieties and hurts yet is not entangled in them. Someone who sees what you overlooked, and what you had trouble looking away from.

Therapy shows you how the problem started 'Once upon a time'. It also links the past to how a problem continues now. A therapist safely guides you to avoid reflexes and, instead, relearn.


"One hour of compassionate deep listening can bring about transformation and healing"

- Nhat Hanh -


Moving forward and fully into life

Together, we gently push you to try out your new learning in the world, in full. Vicious circles slip into virtuous ones. You find the right identity and activity in life, and the confidence to inhabit that new space.

Concerns about being alone shrink. Grudges and misgivings disappear. You become and are unashamedly 'you'.

If You're Ready to....

• Start enjoying life again

• Live authentically

• Exit unhealthy loops and find new, productive methods

• Feel assurance, hope, and goodness in uncertainty

• Find self-acceptance where you felt criticism and doubt

• Achieve your goals

…Then let's talk!

Meet Dr. Chris Michael

I know that things seem almost impossible now, but I can help you prepare and gather your strength to climb out and up. Not only do I know personally about what I say here, but I have helped many people like you feel grounded, proud, and open.

What works is, first, learning what you learned through experiences and relationships of the past. Second, seeing how that continues to influence your present. Third, experiencing how to accept, interrupt, and then stop the old reflexes. That opens up potential for new choices, responses, and successes.

If you have decided that it is time to find your natural place in the world, feel secure in it, and find more happiness and calm, then let’s get to work.
