My name is Michael Kutosi. I have a Masters in Theology from Notre Dame Seminary and a Masters of Social Work from the University of Houston. I am licensed in Texas with over 8 years as a clinical social worker and therapist. I am also a licensed chemical dependency counselor in the state of Texas. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage and is a sign of strength and not weakness. I am here to support you in that process.
My treatment approach is mainly informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy. I am generally eclectic in my approach. The approach is often dictated by the needs of the client and what works for the client.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
