What Clients Say
Dear Michael, I thank you, so much for helping me to find my way through the difficult times I was going through. Losing my husband and getting severely sick, I had no idea how to get through this. You helped me so much to find the answers in me I needed to have, to be able to move forward. You always came up with the right questions so I could find the answers I needed to let the healing begin. You are a real blessing and I hope more people find their way to you.

I had only one session with you Michael, but I’m pleased to tell you that your counselling was very profound for me. I felt I’d lost my way and was looking all over for guidance until I became aware of your business. When I came to you I was hoping you could help me by, kind of, laying out my path for me. Was I ever wrong! But somehow, you enabled me to look inside myself – very deep inside I must say – and WOW! I found my own path and my own answers. I’m so glad that I found you (actually someone referred me to you) and I highly recommend you to other people who are searching for some answers in their life.

…Our relationship (almost 20 years) was falling apart. We were not officially separated but we sure lived like that. We heard about your holistic counselling from a friend who spoke highly about you and thought we would give a try -- kind of give it a last shot to be able to say to ourselves that we tried everything. We wanted to talk to you at least once, to find out if counselling even made any sense for us. In our first introduction session already something happened, we both got the feeling that if we really wanted, we could still do something about our relationship. So we came back. Michael, although our last session was almost 2 years ago, I guess I’ve thanked you quite a few times since then. I know you always say that we have done all the work, but let me tell you, without you, we believe we would have never saved our relationship. When we started we didn’t know how bad our communication was as a couple. You taught us how to communicate from the heart again. You brought us in touch not only with the feelings we had for each other, but even more, or at least just as importantly, how we were feeling about ourselves. When it really sank in that we had choices about changing ourselves and our relationship without feeling we were losing something or having to compromise too much, the result was simply amazing. I could go on and on but I hope that when people read this, they will come to you and talk with you. It sure made a big difference in our lives. By the way, we’re still happily together and live a more joyful life than we ever did before. But not only as couple we do better as well as individuals.
Each of us continued with some single sessions with you. We went through some individual obstacles to get more clarity or start healing in those areas. I guess I can only describe it as a transformation where healing began on a different level, where we got more in touch with ourselves, it somehow raised our level of awareness towards life itself.
Oh, Michael, by the way Doug said I should write it for the both of us. (you know how he is;-) and that he couldn’t have said it any better. ;-) So, here it is. I hope that a lot of people will have the same great experience we had.
Many Blessings

I’m a 63 year old lesbian. Let me tell you first of all, which is really outstanding for me, that I never in my entire life met a straight man like you, Michael, who was able to understand me as a woman on such a deep level. You must, I guess, be very much in tune with your feminine side, and maybe that’s why you have so many “happy” female clients. At least that’s what my friends say, those that I referred to you.
After we met years ago on a professional level our relationship changed with you supporting me with a lot of difficult issues I was going through.
You always ask questions and offer ideas, but you always let me find my own answers and the solutions that best suited me, and you don't take any sh… (but I guess you can't add that ;-)
You have so much love to give and to share, many words of wisdom and a heart of gold.
I can just see you holding your arms out and opening your heart for all with love, and ready to help them learn to fulfill their own needs, dreams and wishes.

…I’ve been through years of therapy, (depression, childhood abuse, abusive relationships) all kinds of medication, “self medication”, and felt I never could get out of the cycle. Thanks to you Michael, and all your effort and patience with me, I’m doing so much better now. I’m off my medications, I’m a way more joyful person, which especially my husband and my children are very happy about. I don’t perceive life as a threat anymore but more like a kind of an adventure where I play the lead role in it. Michael, I guess I was one of your ”tougher“ clients and I can not thank you enough for always believing in me, so I could find ways in me to heal myself. You are very intuitive and with the way your questions resonated in me, I came, at times, to painful but very good realizations. This helped me so much to get out of my role as a victim.
I know there are still challenges ahead of me but for the first time, I have the confidence that I can overcome them. This feeling of being able to do that is something very wonderful in itself. It doesn’t feel to me any longer that this is a way of coping and suffering through it, but a path of joy, freedom to “find” me.
In addition to that, it’s good to know that you will be there for me if I get stuck and want/need your support.
Thank You Michael
