Michael Girouard, LCP

Psychologist
CA
Hi there, I'm Michael! The fact that you are here tells me you are wise enough to know something is not quite right in your life and you are brave enough to ask for help. You do not need to arrive at therapy with a clear diagnosis, a polished story, or even the right words. We can begin with whatever feels difficult, confusing, or no longer sustainable. Let’s talk. My focus I work with people facing depression, anxiety, substance use, major life transitions, struggling to figure out who they are, or with the persistent sense that something in their lives needs to change—even if they are not even sure what that means. My approach I bring a calm, direct, and nonjudgmental presence to therapy. My approach is practical and evidence-informed while also attentive to personal history, recurring patterns, meaning, and experiences that can be difficult to put into words. Together, we will work to understand what is happening, why it may be repeating, and create room genuine choice. My communication style I strive to be warm, direct, supportive, and thoughtful with my patients. I listen closely, ask questions that help uncover patterns of meaning, and speak in clear practical language. I create a space for difficult conversations without judgement. My journey to mental healthcare My journey into mental health grew from a lifelong curiosity about what shapes people and helps them endure. My own life path deepened my respect for resilience and the burdens people carry silently, ultimately leading me to psychology and the privilege of helping others understand and transform their lives. My goals for you You and I will work as a team. Together, we will clarify your goals and seek to understand what lies beneath your current discomfort. We will then turn that understanding into practical steps toward a life that is more intentional and fully your own.
