Mike earned his Master of Science from Oregon Health and Science University in 2002. He held a joint appointment in OHSU’s Schools of Medicine and Nursing from 2003–2009, practicing as a member of the outpatient clinical team and teaching courses in psychotherapy and psychopharmacology. Over the course of his career he has worked across a range of settings — college mental health, academic leadership, executive coaching, and private practice — developing an approach that is integrative, relationally grounded, and oriented toward deep insight and lasting change.
Mike’s practice is rooted in somatic and mindfulness-based approaches, helping clients develop present-moment awareness, emotional regulation, and a more attuned relationship with the body through both stillness and movement. He is also a trained ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP) provider, offering this modality for clients with treatment-resistant depression, anxiety, and trauma.
He works with adults across the age span, from college through late-career and beyond, and with a wide range of presentations, integrating evidence-based pharmacological care with depth-oriented psychotherapy, always attending to the whole person: nervous system, narrative, and relational patterns.
