Getting to know Michael Valverde

Hi, I'm Michael Valverde, LCSW, with a Master's in Clinical Social Work from the University of Kansas. I specialize in anxiety, depression, and trauma. Over the last two years, I've transitioned to therapy after 6.5 years of crisis intervention. I recognize that the human experience is a journey marked by struggle, internal battles, external challenges, and existential dilemmas. When confronted with challenges, we are often pushed beyond our comfort zones, forced to tap into hidden reserves of courage and determination. It's in these moments of struggle that we discover our true capabilities and potential. My therapy approach is grounded in evidence-based practice, primarily focusing on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I provide a supportive environment for clients to explore thoughts and emotions openly. Through ACT techniques, we develop coping skills, enhance self-awareness, and align actions with values for effective and meaningful change. I understand the courage it takes to seek support, and I want you to know that you're not alone. I invite you to take the first step toward healing and growth by reaching out for a confidential consultation with me. Together, we can explore how therapy can support you on your journey toward a brighter future.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My passion for mental health is the driving force behind my dedication to providing effective and evidence-based therapy. I strongly believe in the transformative potential of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and its ability to help individuals lead richer, more meaningful lives. In addition to utilizing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I also integrate other evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). These approaches offer complementary perspectives and techniques to enhance our work together.
