Our Story

Somatic Jungian-based Depth Psychologist MA. Ph.D. EMDR Therapist, NeuroAffective Touch, Addiction Recovery & Family Counseling Shaman practices and Sober Companion.

Michael’s psychodynamic Jungian-based philosophy is grounded in depth-oriented modalities, neuro-biology and neuro-physiology, while being influenced by indigenous shamanic practices. Highly intuitive and empathic, Michael’s approaches target the humanistic, transpersonal and existential realms of the unconscious psyche and soul. This eclectic, solution-oriented ‘bottom-up’ approach bridges the gap between the conscious ego and the unconscious psyche to facilitate re-connection with one’s authentic self through the “wisdom of the body”.

Michael specializes in civilian and combat-related posttraumatic stress, developmental, family of origin and childhood trauma, sexual trauma, chronic depression, hypervigilance and anxiety disorders, phobias, survivors’ guilt, shame, moral injury and betrayal, sleep disturbance and nightmares, psycho-social, psycho-spiritual issues, addiction recovery counseling, com morbid disorders and complex disorders of extreme stress (C-PTSD). His expertise extends into civilian post traumatic stress such as victim-related, natural disaster crisis, survivor and/ or perpetrator trauma.

Michael’s background in indigenous shamanic and psycho-spiritual healing practices adds yet another dimension to his work. These modalities include shamanic journeys, soul loss and retrieval, childhood and past life regression, meditation and mindfulness practices, myth-poetic storytelling, initiation rites of passage, energy healing, entity extractions, ceremonies and ritualistic practices.
