GET TO KNOW ME
Ever since I was young, I knew I wanted to get into a career path that would make a difference in people’s lives. This interest led me to study psychology in college. As a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Georgia and a Telehealth Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, I am committed to the well-being of all my patients and go above and beyond to cater to their needs. You can live anywhere in the state of Georgia or Florida, and I can meet with you via a virtual therapy session. I am a Certified Chemical Dependency Counselor and as well as an HIV Early Intervention Specialist. I specialize in substance abuse/addiction therapy, dual diagnosis, and cognitive behavioral techniques. I have a particular interest in working with military veterans as well.
I truly care for all of my clients and work diligently to help find them the answers they seek. I have worked with a variety of patients dealing with circumstances that are unique to their lives. I have almost 20 years of experience working with men, women, veterans, and the elderly in outpatient, inpatient and telemental health capacities. I have worked in substance abuse treatment centers, inpatient psychiatric hospitals for adults, and an inpatient facility for adults with developmental disabilities. I have been doing teletherapy since 2020.
I look forward to building a therapeutic relationship with you. Please call or email me to set up your first appointment or book your own appointment by creating a profile with Headway at https://headway.co/providers/michael-bergquist
