Getting to know Michael Shippole

As your licensed mental health counselor, we'll begin by building a strong and trusting rapport, which lays the foundation for effective therapy. Together, we will carefully identify your presenting issues and concerns, exploring the patterns, emotions, and experiences that have shaped your current challenges. Using evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness practices, I will tailor our sessions to meet your unique needs. Along the way, we will create clear, achievable strategies designed to help you reach your personal, academic, or professional goals. Throughout the process, you will feel genuinely heard and understood in a safe, supportive environment. You will gain confidence in your ability to navigate difficulties, develop greater emotional resilience, and foster personal growth that leads to meaningful and lasting change. My goal is to empower you to live a more fulfilling, balanced life while equipping you with the tools to continue thriving beyond our time together.

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.
