My background

I’ve spent roughly 35 years in behavioral health. Along the way I’ve worked as a psychotherapist and counselor, taught as a professor, supervised clinicians, directed programs, coached, and spoken to audiences about psychology and well-being.

Today I see individuals and couples in my Creve Coeur office, teach at Washington University in St. Louis, and host the Psych with Mike podcast.

What I believe

People can make positive, healthy change. Much of our distress comes from how well, or how poorly, we learned to regulate our emotions. Self-care isn’t optional. And the loss of real human connection is one of the central problems of our time.

My clinical work follows Heinz Kohut’s Self Psychology and is informed by Carl Jung’s Analytical Psychology. See how that shapes individual therapy and couples therapy.
