About Micah
He keeps therapy practical and person-centered. Sessions aim to identify what matters most, build on existing strengths, and create small, doable steps toward change. Micah listens closely and offers honest, straightforward feedback to help people handle day-to-day challenges.
His background includes a master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Bethel Seminary and many years of direct clinical work. That experience informs how he helps people manage grief, trauma, addiction-related issues, parenting stress, and intimacy concerns.
Micah uses a mix of approaches to fit each person’s needs. He draws on attachment-based ideas to understand relationship patterns, cognitive behavioral strategies to change thoughts and behaviors, and mindfulness to reduce reactivity. These methods are used together in ways that make sense for each person.
People meet him for help with career stress, ADHD support, coping with abandonment or family-of-origin issues, and forgiveness work. He aims to create a collaborative space where clients can try new ways of relating, communicating, and managing strong emotions like anger.

How these approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on how past and present relationships shape emotions and reactions. Online sessions can help people notice interaction patterns, rebuild trust, and practice new ways of relating to partners or family members. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In virtual sessions clients learn practical skills to test unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioral experiments between meetings.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That may mean combining attachment ideas with CBT and mindfulness practices so work feels relevant and useful for the client’s life.
Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and let people meet from locations that suit their schedule. Some formats can be better for shorter check-ins or when video bandwidth is limited, while others support longer, more interactive sessions. Licensed professionals help tailor session length and focus so therapy fits into everyday life.
