Michael Malone

Michael Malone is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 16 years of experience. He focuses on helping people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to turn. He welcomes straightforward conversations and practical steps toward feeling better.

Michael meets people without judgment and begins where they are. Sessions center on what is happening now, while also looking back when past events help explain current patterns. He aims to set clear, realistic goals and build skills clients can use right away.

His work addresses a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, stress, depression, grief, anger, addictions, and parenting strain. He also helps people navigate relationship and intimacy problems, adoption and foster care issues, blended family dynamics, and fertility or end-of-life decisions. Mood disorders and ADHD are also within his listed focus areas.

Michael draws from several therapeutic approaches to match the problem at hand. He uses elements of existential thinking to examine meaning, mindfulness to increase present-moment awareness, and solution-focused techniques to target specific changes. The methods are chosen to fit each person’s needs rather than follow a single formula.

He asks prospective clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to begin. From there, scheduling is arranged according to his availability and the platform’s process for appointments. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How his approaches shape online therapy

Michael often uses existential therapy to help people examine meaning, values, and choices when life feels uncertain. That approach helps when clients want to understand why certain patterns matter to them and what direction feels authentic.

He also incorporates mindfulness therapy to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to stress or strong emotions. Mindfulness can be useful for managing anxiety, anger, and mood swings by training attention and calming the nervous system.

Solution-focused therapy is another tool he uses to set specific goals and identify small, practical steps toward improvement. This approach tends to be helpful when people want quick, actionable changes and clear measures of progress.

Picking the right approach is part of the work together. He will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. That process can include trying an approach and adjusting it as needed.
