What we offer
Therapy is the foundation, but it is not always enough. We offer a full range of healing experiences built for every season of a man's life — from weekly therapy and men's groups to intensives, retreats, and rites of passage. Wherever you are on the map, there is a next step and we will help you find it.

You don't have to have it figured out before you walk in. Most men don't. What matters is that you show up.
Therapy is our steadfast foundation, but it is not always enough. At Metro-Detroit Men’s Therapy, we believe in offering healing experiences at every stage and season of man’s life.
Every session is built around you — where you are, what you're carrying, and what needs to move. We use a blend of approaches depending on what the moment calls for, including Internal Family Systems (parts work), somatic and nervous system work, attachment-based therapy, and EMDR. No single tool fits every man, and we don't pretend otherwise.
A typical session isn't you lying on a couch while someone nods and takes notes. It's a real conversation with direction and purpose. Some days we go deep into the past. Some days we work on what's happening right now in your body and your relationships. Every session moves something forward.
We work with men in-person in Metro-Detroit and virtually across Michigan. Whether you're ready to sit across from someone, or you need to start from the comfort of your own space, we meet you where you are.
This work is not about becoming someone else. It's about becoming more of who you are.

Individual Therapy
The Foundation
This is where the work begins. In weekly one-on-one sessions, we work with your parts — the sub-personalities that protect you, guide you, and carry the wounds you have kept hidden. We look at your attachment patterns and how they show up in your relationships and self-worth. We work with your nervous system to move out anger, stress, or the tendency to shutdown, and build the capacity to truly enjoy your life.
Offered in-person in Metro-Detroit or virtually across Michigan.
Intensives
The Deep Dive
More work, less time. Intensives are one or two full days of focused, uninterrupted work, allowing us to go deeper into parts work, attachment, and nervous system regulation. More time means more ground covered, more insight gained, and more of your core energy returned to you.
Sessions can occur at the office, or a place comfortable for you. Mike has great options for nature-based and cabin locations and will help design a program that works for you.
Men's Group
The Brotherhood
Men heal differently in community. Men's group is confronting, cathartic, and supportive all at once. You will start to see yourself in other men. You will hear your own story in theirs. You will receive the kind of honest, grounded feedback the outside world rarely offers. It becomes a training ground where real issues get worked through in community and carried back into your daily life.

Retreats
The Reset
Most men need time away, few actually take it. Retreat is built specifically for that. Time to rest, reflect, and reconnect to your inner self, so you can return to your life as the man it has been waiting for. Our retreats are designed around the seasons of the year and the seasons of your life.
The annual retreat in September. The nervous system retreat in January. The adventure retreat in October. Each one is built with intention, and designed to meet you where you are.
How We Work
Our work is built on a set of beliefs about what men actually need to heal, grow, and lead. Not a checklist. Not a formula. A living framework that meets you where you are and moves with you as you change.
Welcoming All Parts
The good, the bad, and the ugly. All of it is welcome here. We don't ask you to perform wellness or leave the hard stuff at the door. We work with every part of who you are — the wounds, the shame, the strength, the confusion — so that nothing stays buried and everything can be put to work for you.
Structure with Softness
Strong men need both. The hard skills of discipline, direction, and accountability matter. So does the ability to sit with pain, name what hurts, and tend to what needs tending. We hold both without apology because that is what it actually means to be a strong man.
Honoring the Seasons
Not every season of life asks the same thing of you. Grief asks something different than growth. Transition asks something different than stability. We meet you in whatever season you are in and give you the framework to move through it with intention rather than just survive it.
Taking Space to Regulate
Men need room away from the noise to become who they are meant to be. Taking time for yourself is not selfish. It is how you become a better father, partner, leader, and man. We do the work of befriending your nervous system so you can move out of anger and shutdown and show up with presence and capacity.
Protecting, Providing, and Taking Pride
There is deep meaning in being the man others depend on. We honor the drive to protect, provide, and lead — and we help you carry that weight without losing yourself in it. Purpose and service are not burdens. They are part of what makes a man's life worth living.
Returning to Nature
You cannot separate man from nature. It is where we come from and where we return to ourselves. Nature is woven into our work — in our retreats, our intensives, and our belief that the outdoors teaches lessons no office ever could. The wilderness has a way of stripping things down to what is real.
Healing the Lineage
The patterns you carry did not start with you. But they can end with you. We look honestly at how you learned to be in this world, clean up the attachment wounds that shaped you, and do the work that stops generational suffering from passing to the next generation. This is some of the most important work a man can do.
Fun and Adventure
Somewhere along the way, men were told to grow up and leave adventure behind. We disagree. Healing the inner child, reclaiming a sense of play, and leaning into challenge and exploration are not extras. They are essential. Men were built to explore, push their edge, and experience the joy of being fully alive.
