Getting to know Michael Henderson
Hi there, I'm Michael!
Do you experience stress that can leave you feeling overwhelmed? Does your stress cause you to isolate yourself from your family and friends? Are you struggling with thoughts that prevent you from being your "true" self?
I help individuals struggling with their thoughts and emotions make sense of the challenges they face in life. Together, we will explore your current challenges, how your thoughts and emotions impact your efforts to understand these challenges, and discover ways to empower yourself to resolve and flourish through them.
My purpose is to support you! I have practiced as a psychotherapist for over 17 years and hold a Master's in Counseling Psychology from John F. Kennedy University, as well as a Bachelor's degree from California State University, Sacramento. I have developed skills in mindfulness, support, and empowerment. In our sessions, I focus on providing a safe, comfortable space without judgment for you to be your true self. I use compassion, genuine focus, and extensive psychotherapeutic skills to support you in resolving your personal challenges. I'm here to support you and look forward to the opportunity!
What should a new client know about working with you?
By the end of our first session, you will begin to understand the impact of your challenges on your daily life. I will offer you tasks (homework, readings, etc.) to complete between our sessions that will focus on what we learned in session. I will also offer you encouragement and support that you can learn to take with you after each meeting.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
