About Michael Anderson
About Michael C. Anderson, MS, LMHC, LPC
I
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with more than eight years of experience providing individual and group therapy to adults from diverse backgrounds. Licensed in Florida and Pennsylvania, I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, stress, grief, and other challenges affecting emotional well-being and quality of life.
I also have specialized training in supporting individuals and families affected by Parkinson’s disease, including the emotional and cognitive challenges that can accompany the condition.
My approach is collaborative, practical, and client-centered. I use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques to help clients understand patterns of thinking and behavior, develop effective coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change.
I believe therapy should be a place where you can be yourself without judgment. My practice is welcoming and inclusive of people of all backgrounds, identities, orientations, and relationship styles. I have extensive experience working with the LGBTQ+ community and provide affirming care related to identity, relationships, sexuality, gender, anxiety, depression, and OCD.
I earned my Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Carlow University and completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Pittsburgh. My clinical training included internships at Persad Center and Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic.
Beyond clinical practice, I have experience in community education, professional training, advocacy, and mental health program development. These experiences have strengthened my commitment to accessible, informed, and individualized mental health care.
Whatever brings you to therapy, my goal is to provide a supportive space where you can feel heard, develop practical tools, and move toward the life you want.
