Hello, my name is MARK. I'm a licensed psychotherapist and clinical social worker in Iron Mountain, MI. I have 35+ years of clinical experience to help you.
I specialize in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and (very similar) Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) for treatment of depression, anxiety, anger and other unwated emotions and maladaptive behaviors.
("Maury" was a much loved certified Therapy Dog who started working with me in 2007, and lived almost until 2023).

WHAT I CAN'T HELP WITH:
- PRESCRIBING MEDS - only Physicians can prescribe medications in Michigan - I can help you understand psychiatric medications and to decide whether to ask your doctor for a medication trial. I do NOT make recommendations for stimulants (Attention-Deficit meds) or pain killers.
- TRICARE - I've had too much difficulty in the past and it's difficult reaching provider support.
- COURT TESTIFYING - I offer psychotherapy, no legal assessments, custody evaluations, or testifying.​
- WORKER'S COMP - I'm not set up to work with worker's comp, and I can't provide disability assessments. I typically recommend patients seek letters from their physician or a specialist for release / excuse from work. ​​
- ​​​PTSD (POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER) - I do not treat PTSD if it's your primary problem; other local therapists in the provider directory DO.
If you are feeling SUICIDAL, please consider the following options:
- The Emergency Department at your nearest hospital. They can have a professional crisis worker paged to meet with you.
- National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 800.273.TALK
- Tell your doctor, adult family members, or another adult you trust and avoid being alone.
- Dickinson-Iron-Menominee residents, call Northpointe (24/7) 800.750.0522
- Marinette and Florence County residents call ADAPT 715.732.7760
- Delta, Marquette & Alger County residents, call PATHWAYS 906.225.1181
Maybe you've already tried psychotherapy (with a licensed professional), tried anti-depressant medication, tried numerous self-improvement efforts... mileage varies greatly, and many times the 2nd or 3rd effort helps dramatically more: try another psychotherapist, doctor, medication, take a class, join a club, try new hobbies, seek a new job, make more social efforts... any or all of the above. If you don't find therapy helpful, TELL your therapist so s/he can modify their approach. Same goes for my past patients - I'll try my best to help you, but am not the least bit offended if you find another therapist whom you find more helpful. .
