Michael Majer, LISW

Michael Majer is a Licensed Independent Social Worker who helps people facing depression, anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem. He focuses on supporting LGBT clients and those coping with ADHD and mood challenges. He aims to make the first steps toward help feel manageable and straightforward.

He listens for what matters most to each person and works from a client-centered stance. Sessions are collaborative and straightforward. Michael tries to be direct while keeping the tone warm and respectful.

Beyond core mood and anxiety concerns, he addresses isolation and loneliness, life purpose, guilt and shame, and forgiveness. He also supports people dealing with chronic pain, illness, caregiving strain, dissociation, and aspects of the autism spectrum. He offers help with work-related stress, money and financial issues, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and post-traumatic stress.

Michael draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts his approach to the individual in front of him. He seeks to create clear goals together and uses practical steps to track progress. His aim is to help people build skills that fit into daily life.

With three years of clinical experience as an OH LISW - Licensed Independent Social Worker - he practices in Ohio and meets people in English. He asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire to get started and to schedule sessions according to his availability.

Practical approaches for online therapy and care

Michael uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common approach he uses emphasizes identifying unhelpful thinking and learning concrete skills to manage anxiety and mood swings. This helps people spot patterns in daily life and try new ways of responding.

Another approach centers on building coping strategies for stress, trauma reactions, and obsessive thoughts. It focuses on short exercises and step-by-step plans that can reduce panic and compulsive behaviors over time. These methods suit people who want hands-on tools they can practice between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then tailor techniques that feel like a good fit. Adjustments happen as work progresses so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Confirm the session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. In general, online work can make scheduling easier and fit therapy into a busy week. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and it removes commute time so sessions are simpler to fit into daily life.
