Therapists help patients to heal wounds of the past. An effective coach supports clients to seize the present day, co-constructs a carefully thought out timeline and action-focused agenda to achieve clients' goals and increase their capacity, and then guides them each step of the way. In addition to being a graduate of a rigorous, year-long coach training program, Dr. Michael holds a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from NYU. However, he prefers to operate in a coaching modality in order to support clients across the globe and in a more hands-on manner. Because of his years of training and experience in various clinical/therapeutic settings, coaching clients often report feeling increased levels of confidentiality and support when processing issues from the past and sharing sensitive topics as part of the work to move closer to achieving their goals. *Please note that all inquiries on this site are for coaching, not therapy*
