About
Hi, My name is Mike Ritchey. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California with 5+ years of experience working in the Mental Health field. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, parenting problems, career change, substance abuse and relationship issues.
I am a person centered counselor with a warm and compassionate style. I believe in treating others with respect and dignity. I will meet you where you are and move along at your pace. I don't believe in labels identifying an individual (including what anyone knows of therapists) and take a comfortable approach towards therapy.
I acknowledge the courage it takes to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and commend you for your choice in reaching for that goal. I look forward to working together.
