EXCELLENTBased on 9 reviewsBobby McFadden2024-02-26Mike’s combination of attentive listening and comprehensive treatment laid the foundation for me to explore my vulnerabilities and thought patterns. By applying aspects of mindfulness, CBT, EMDR and IFS, I was able to work through ingrained negative thought patterns and build the coping skills necessary to cultivate a happy, fulfilling life. Mike gave me the space and the tools to be better to myself, my family and the passer bye.Sharon Kraynak2024-02-19I was diagnosed with major depression many years ago and have encountered a variety of therapists, none of whom ever delved deep enough into my life experiences nor gave me tools to manage my depressive episodes. I met Mike four years ago. I felt a real connection during our first session. I appreciated Mike’s authenticity and earnestness. He listened to me, posed questions, offered positive feedback and shared strategies to help me manage and cope with my depressive episodes. As my sessions progress Mike continues to support me with his insight, experience and tools (EDMR, IFS). He has a genuine interest in my well-being and is exceptional at showing me a new perspective on my life experiences and how they have shaped who I am today. I am blessed to have crossed paths with such a remarkable therapist.Julia Block2024-01-24Ive never had a therapist that cared so deeply, invested so much and strived for a plan of action to foster healing and change. Michael is kind, compassionate and driven to help in any way he can.Maryjean Strus Sell2024-01-23I suffer from childhood abuse, trauma, anxiety and depression. I’ve been working with Mike for over two years. Mike is kind, understanding, thoughtful, and insightful. He created a safe, non-judgmental space where I could open up about my feelings and concerns. He offered empathy and compassion. During our sessions, I felt heard, comfortable, and respected, and was able to establish a genuine connection with him. I am grateful for the resources that were shared with me along the way. During my journey, I was provided with skills and tools to push me to my limits to better myself in my professional and personal relationships, as well as in other facets of my life. It was a relief to be able to address childhood traumas and how they continue to affect me today. I truly enjoyed having lighthearted conversations with Mike, as well as discussing the heavy issues. I liked that we were able to joke and laugh, but also to be honest and personal. I appreciated that he asked me questions that I wouldn't ask myself. I have grown and developed personally and regained self-esteem.Ben Potts2024-01-17Mike brings a ton of compassion, empathy, and encouragement to his practice. He’s pushed me to know myself better and care for myself much more deeply, and he has helped me learn things I never could have learned on my own. Mike combines a mastery of well-established clinical techniques like EMDR and IFS with a casual and friendly vibe. His insights—and insights he’s helped me to gain about myself—have made a huge difference in my life. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to truly grow and heal as a person.Theresa S2024-01-08I decided to work with Mike because I was seeking an honest perspective, expert counsel, and a sense of peace. Mike not only met but exceeded my expectations. His unique approach, coupled with a quest for positive impact, made a significant difference in my life.Wendy S2024-01-07As a person with a history of traumatic experiences, traditional talk therapy didn't produce the kind of deep healing I needed. I decided to search for a therapist who specializes in the treatment of trauma (w/EMDR & IFS) and found Michael Brown. He's been guiding me through my healing journey for almost a year now and I still find myself in awe of his exceptional skill and character. Mike is a brilliant therapist and a remarkable human being... Kind, authentic, truthful, committed, validating, and trustworthy. There have been times when I didn't feel capable of facing certain painful aspects of my past and it was my confidence and belief in Mike that kept me moving forward. He is a constant source of safety, hope, encouragement, support, direction, understanding, and priceless perspective. I can't imagine being on this journey with anyone other than Mike and I am eternally grateful to have found him.Kathleen Hoy2024-01-05Michael is well versed in many healing modalities, has a wide array of experience and is always learning. There was an immediate comfort with him and he is very insightful. He has supported and helped me a great deal. I especially like that he knows IFS and EMDR. KathleenCynthia Beers2024-01-05I've been seeing Mike for a year now and let me go on record by saying he is remarkable. When I started seeing Mike, I had something pretty traumatic happen to me. I was suicidal, broken, and depressed. He did EMDR on me and it honestly changed my life for the better in a matter of 15 minutes. Since then, I don't feel broken anymore and my life has been back on track and successful. I look forward to my sessions with him because I know they'll be insightful and thought provoking. He listens, he helps, he's amazing. I highly suggest Juniper Counseling to all.
