Mike Fowler, M.M.F.T., Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
Mike is focused on helping people find healing so they can connect in their relationships and flourish in their lives. He has worked with a broad variety of clients and struggles such as veterans with complex trauma, couples in the midst of infidelity, and people who are unsure what they want to be different but are confident they cannot go on how they have been. Mike has confidence in people having the capabilities to come up with their own solutions provided the right support and environment. He views trauma and experiences as barriers getting in the way of accessing or utilizing these solutions. Because of this, Mike focuses on creating the neurological changes to help people find the true long lasting healing they need rather than giving skills that focus on will power that ultimately depletes. Mike's areas of focus include: relational counseling (married, dating, or other), infidelity, trauma, couple violence, anxiety and depression.
