About

Hello, I am Michael. I have been a License Mental Health Counselor in Florida since 2009 & have been in the mental health field since 2006. I have worked with a wide range of clientele from individuals with several & chronic mental illness to suicidal adolescents to inmates facing life sentences. I wanted to tell you a little story about myself. In 2015, I was diagnosed with Testicular Cancer & treated it with chemotherapy. In 2017, I was diagnosed with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia which I learned was a side effect of this initial chemotherapy. I spent a month in the hospital. I knew I needed a new approach. I began my journey into naturalistic healing with food, herbs, life-style change.
