I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor in Washington with over 25 years of experience working as a counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, and trauma. I am also trained extensively in working with ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and addictions.
My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity and compassion. I do not believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and trauma informed practice. We will work together to develop a treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It is a sign of strength to take the step you have taken to seek a counselor. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Michael Rhine. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Michael is extremely thoughtful, caring, and a great listener. He has helped me realize sources for my anxiety and depression I never thought had existed. He has been a great asset in my mental health journey!
