Getting to know Mike Garvey
I chose social work and psychotherapy as a career because I have always enjoyed getting to know people and sharing struggles, challenges, and successes. Solving puzzles is fun for me, and I love helping others feel comfortable with self-exploration, identifying goals, and discovering resolution.
Most of my life has been about learning, working, raising family, and building connections. I’m convinced that every day alive is a gift and every relationship is worth attention. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from New Mexico State University, which has deepened my commitment to supporting others on their journeys.

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.
