LCSW
Accepting Clients

Hi, I’m Michael, an LCSW helping people navigate life's challenges, reduce stress, and grow. Let’s work toward a balanced life together!

Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Ilinois

About My Clients

My ideal client is someone ready to step outside their comfort zone, embrace change, and explore new perspectives. While this journey can be challenging at times, it ultimately empowers clients with greater self-understanding and practical strategies to navigate life’s stressors with confidence and long-term success.

My Background and Approach

With 10 years of experience in education, I’ve supported clients through crises, life transitions, relationship challenges, and barriers to success. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Illinois, I’m here to help you work through life’s obstacles with a Humanistic, Person-Centered approach. In our first session, we’ll explore your unique needs, identify the changes you want to see, and create a collaborative plan to move forward. Together, we'll focus on your strengths, broaden your perspectives, and equip you with the tools to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and resilience.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My core belief is that everyone has the capacity for change and growth. As an LCSW, I view the power of relationship as the most important catalyst for transformation. Through collaboration and reflection, I believe that anything is possible. While I identify as a leftist queer, I’ve worked with people from all walks of life, including those with differing political views. I’ve found that patience, open-mindedness, and building genuine connections help individuals—regardless of political affiliation, gender identity, or sexual orientation—broaden their perspectives. This shift allows them to engage more effectively with others, better cope with life’s challenges, and utilize reflective tools for lasting growth. Outside of work, I enjoy walking my dog Penny, participating in theatre, dancing in Boys Town, and unwinding with TikTok after a busy day

I offer online counseling in the following states:
