“Life has a way of throwing things at us—sometimes it’s the everyday weight we all carry, and other times it’s something deeper, something that leaves a mark we can’t quite name. Whether you’re navigating stress, grief, identity or trauma, I’m here to walk alongside you with compassion, curiosity and hope. With over 20 years of experience as a therapist, I still consider myself a student—constantly learning, growing and refining how I support the people I work with. My approach is never one-size-fits-all. I listen closely to your story, your goals and your pain points, and together we’ll co-create a path forward that feels meaningful and effective for you.”

Clients often describe Jeff as warm, grounded and thoughtful. He takes his time getting to know who his clients—not just what they’re struggling with, but how they make sense of their world. His goal is to offer a safe, judgment-free space where clients can be fully seen and supported. Therapy with Jeff is a collaboration—the client is the expert on his or her life, and Jeff brings tools and insight to help the client move toward healing and clarity.

Jeff is trained in several evidence-based approaches, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Internal Family Systems Informed EMDR, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). These methods are particularly effective in working through trauma, anxiety, and unhelpful thought patterns. He have a deep passion and specialization in working with spiritual and religious trauma, the LGBTQ+ community, grief and loss, mood disorders, parenting challenges, and premarital counseling.

Jeff’s hope is that every client feels understood, empowered and equipped to take the next brave steps in their journey—whatever that may look like.

Jeff Michaelis participates in the Diversity Collective.
