As an open-minded medical practitioner, Dr. Mike understands that medication alone may not completely resolve a person’s problems. Often, after an extended period of time, certain illnesses can erode a person’s behavior, personality and relationships. While medications may improve an acute illness, psychotherapy is often needed to address more chronic difficulties.

Psychotherapy assists in treating resistant depression, resistant anxiety problems, troubled personal relationships at home or work, and life unhappiness. It is also helpful for victims of trauma, abuse and other post-traumatic stress disorders. Additionally, psychotherapy may be used in situations where medication options are limited, such as in pregnancy.

Geared toward a more relaxed therapy schedule, Dr. Mike follows the principles of psychodynamic psychotherapy, which enable him to quickly integrate a client’s life experiences and existing relationships into his analysis of and prescription for their condition. This key support process is often all a patient needs to adapt their behavior and deal with stressful situations more successfully.
