Michael Chester

You are tired of feeling unfulfilled and dissatisfied with life. You are at the point where you know something has to change–even if you don’t know exactly what that is or what it may look like. You are ready to take the first step to truly living the life you would like to live: To find and connect with what is important to you and be the best version of yourself you can be. You are ready to find a new way of living that leads to happiness and fulfillment instead of depression, anxiety, or substance abuse. I know that reaching out for help can be tough. I also know that taking that first step and finding a therapist can lead to a better life. I became a therapist because I personally know how hard it can be to live a life affected by anxiety, depression, and substance abuse. I know it can be hard to find a way out and I have dedicated my life to helping others in the same ways that I have been helped. My passion and love for helping others came from the feelings created when I was able to connect with what's important to me and no longer have my thoughts and feelings dictate what I did or who I was.
