Empowerment, empathy, compassion, & trust are the cornerstones upon which I build a safe healing space to overcome obstacles. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who uses Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) & Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) to assist clients with life's navigation by making healthier emotional choices & achieving unconditional acceptance. I have completed Level 1 & 2 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy and when working with couples I channel my skills towards building a strong base to increase relationship intimacy through healthy communication, conflict resolution, & making life dreams come true.
For several years I have worked with individuals, couples, groups, and families from diverse backgrounds, propelling all towards their full potential. Ethically, I use only evidence based practices supported by groundbreaking research, providing clients with interventions demonstrated to work best for their unique struggle.
I aim to provide an engaging, educational, and life altering experience in all sessions, increasing mental strength and overall life satisfaction.

Dr. Mike Abrams
Psychologist, PhD, MBA, ABPP
I limit my practice to a few clients with whom I can offer meaningful help. I do not think it is ethical for a psychologist to agree to work with someone who has a problem outside of their expertise or someone who has barriers that the psychologist suspects they cannot overcome. When I conclude that I can help someone, I collaborate with them while applying the most appropriate methods for their problems. I choose these methods from among the many I have studied or developed. This is sometimes called a Transdiagnostic Integrative technique. Here, a clinical label or diagnosis is less important than the unique collection of symptoms a person is living with. I also make sure that I come to understand the client's point of view, how their adversities, their personal philosophy, and their level of suffering combine to lead to their anxiety, depressed mood, or even anger. When the client agrees, I prefer to use psychological testing to be sure my assessment of the client's situation is supported by the best available science. When I conduct psychotherapy, I know it can only be effective when I view the client as presenting many intricate problems that must be fully understood, so each client's issues are approached as scientific hypotheses that guide therapy, which guide my specific interventions, but is always open to revision as new life history information or psychological data becomes available.
Since I have trained numerous therapists and continue researching and publishing in the field, my clients are assured they receiving the most effective evidence-based interventions. If you do see me, you can be confident that you will be unconditionally accepted in a safe and comfortable therapeutic relationship with every effort being made to help you.
