I always start with an introductory session, where you’ll have the opportunity to share your story and what you hope to achieve in therapy. We’ll work together to figure this out! I strive to create a warm, welcoming environment that allows you to feel comfortable sharing and being vulnerable, while also feeling secure. From there, we’ll work together in the sessions that follow to make these goals a reality for you.
Hey there! I’m Mike Strand, an experienced psychologist with over 15 years of dedication to guiding individuals on their journey of self-improvement. My expertise lies in helping clients overcome emotional challenges to enhance personal growth and strengthen relationships. I recognize that seeking support can be difficult, which is why I will strive to make therapy as welcoming and approachable as possible. Our sessions are collaborative, tailored to your specific needs, facilitating deep and lasting transformation.
My goal is to help you uncover and shed these labels, to learn self compassion, find your voice and power in authenticity. We will also build skills to regulate distressing emotions. Emotional regulation is an often overlooked cornerstone of mental health - we need to feel emotions but often are not taught how, which can make feelings seem overwhelming.
I am a highly trained psychotherapist and pastoral counselor who has been working in the field for over twenty-five years. I offer compassionate and caring counseling for those who are struggling with a variety of life issues. I am a spiritually-integrated therapist who draws from many spiritual and religious traditions in my care for people.
My approach to health recognizes the deep connection between the mind, body, and spirit. Often, when we try to make changes, we find it difficult to maintain balance: giving up alcohol might lead to overeating, leaving a toxic relationship might result in isolation, or earning more money might come at the cost of family time. This imbalance frequently occurs because we focus on just one part of the problem. In our first session, we will assess your mental, physical, and emotional well-being to identify and address the root cause, not just the symptoms, and find a strategy that best suits your individual needs.

I believe I have 2 superpowers. One is listening and the other is being curious. These create a powerful amalgam for change when used with proven therapeutic tools. Change can be scary, but sometimes we take a step into the unknown in spite of our fear. I believe this is being brave. That is the step that can move you toward the change and understanding you want.
