Michael Seniuk
Pre-Licensed Professional
I strive to create a safe space where you can be seen and met right where you are, wherever you may be in your unique journey
We all want to be happy, to be our authentic self, to experience deep and fulfilling relationships, but sometimes we may find ourselves stuck and overwhelmed by our situation in life, our thoughts, feelings, or relationships. As hard as these experiences can be, they are also doorways to greater meaning, purpose and growth. I work with people of all backgrounds struggling with addiction, trauma, depression, anxiety, ADHD, identity, grief and loss, spiritual and psychedelic integration and more. Utilizing a variety of therapeutic modalities I will help you to access your innate ability for growth, healing and transformation. My approach is informed by psychodynamic, somatic, and humanistic psychotherapy. I am also inspired by traditional wisdom and healing traditions from around the world, the power of nature, it's cycles and rhythms and the possibility of healing that comes from connecting ourselves more deeply with all that is. I maintain a deep respect for each individual and the life experiences that make us unique. I do my best to meet everyone right where they are, and to work together in a spirit of collaboration. I am honored to walk this path with you.
