About Michael

Michael Wilson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 31 years of experience working across rehabilitation and mental health settings. Over the course of his career he has supported both younger and older adults, gaining experience with a wide range of concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, mood disorders, and the challenges of major life changes. He brings a client-centered philosophy to his work, honoring each person as the expert on their own life and shaping treatment to fit individual strengths and goals.

His practice draws on an eclectic, evidence-informed set of tools including Motivational Interviewing, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy, applied where appropriate to issues like chronic pain and illness, caregiver stress, career concerns, and substance use. Michael emphasizes practical, realistic goal-setting and offers guidance grounded in long clinical experience while avoiding one-size-fits-all solutions.

Clients can expect a steady, respectful partner who listens carefully, offers strategies that have helped others in similar situations, and collaborates on manageable steps toward meaningful change. His approach centers on individualized support aimed at improving day-to-day coping and long-term wellbeing.

Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present. It is useful for stress, anxiety, depression, chronic health challenges, and coping with change. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathy, respect, and building a trusting relationship so clients can explore concerns like self-esteem, grief, life transitions, and caregiver stress at their own pace. Motivational Interviewing is a goal-directed, collaborative style that helps resolve ambivalence and strengthen motivation for change, making it well suited to addictions, habit change, and decisions about treatment or lifestyle shifts.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Michael collaborates with each person to identify the methods that best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps ensure the work feels relevant and practical.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - so clients can fit sessions into busy schedules, manage mobility or caregiving constraints, and access support from home. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to use therapy in the ways that work best for each person.
