I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Wyoming since 2012. I began my practice in 2002 while residing in Georgia. I have been active in crisis response/resolution, initial diagnostics/treatment planning, individual and group therapies focusing on impulse control, depression/anxiety coping skills, decision - making/organizational skills. I have worked with issues involving chronic pain management and severe psychotic symptoms management.
I utilize a client - centered and directed cognitive - behavioral approach with my clients. The cornerstone of my collaboration is an empathetic identification of the client's desire to increase/decrease behaviors, manage complex emotional stressors effectively, and enhance decision - making skills while encouraging self - reliance with confidence.
I look forward to meeting my clients and strive to achieve clinically measurable and satisfying goals while enhancing desired strengths and abilities!

Michael is an amazing therapist. He strikes a perfect balance of listening, interpreting concerns and dilemmas, and offering up relevant and targeted information. Michael is thoughtful and deliberate with the advice he shares. He creates a safe space to be honest and vulnerable. His wisdom has helped me through some especially difficult times, and has helped me gain the perspective I need to persevere…and thrive. Our sessions have added meaning to my life. I am truly grateful for Michael.

I highly recommend Mr Witham. He explains things without condescension. I have come to better understand others' motives from an outside perspective. I find less shame in identifying my needs. This helps me to adjust my expectations of others and identify areas where I could help others adjust their expectations of me. I would be lost without these skills to help me navigate serious and long term health complications.

This is the personal communication I’ve needed. I was kind of too proud to try therapy. I didn’t want to believe that I couldn’t fix my problems on my own. Talking with Michael had been a great help to me because it makes me accountable for the decisions I make and he knows the right way to work on the issues I’m facing! It’s very good to talk to a knowledgeable professional instead of just trying to figure things out for my own. Michael is a good man and he cares for his patients. I would definitely recommend!

Michael is by far the best therapist I've ever had. Even though, I was a bit reserved with him in the beginning - I stuck with the therapy and it paid off.
I can hear actually still hear his suggestions in my mind and have found practical ways to incorporate his strategies into my life. He always was reassuring and forgiving even though I struggled to fulfill the tasks. But I think I can imagine that doing the worksheets he suggested would have been certainly helpful! That being said, as a good student, I took notes and tried my best to follow through.
Takeaways:
Mindfulness
Focused Breathing
Going to your 'happy place'
Making your environment as pleasurable as possible (especially for difficult tasks, conversations or situations)
ex. the 5 senses - nice smells, sounds, visuals
Lowering your expectations
Set goals of 3-5 tasks for a week (not 10 for every day)
Getting outside and away from distractions
Beyond this, I have really found that him to be a gentleman. Always professional, never condescending. This intelligent yet unpretentious quality is absolute gold.
I will return for his support in the near future, should I need it!

Michael was amazing. He gave me the skills I needed to manage my anxiety and enlightened me on other habits that I was struggling with that I wasn’t aware of. After my 4 sessions with Michael I feel I’m walking away with the tools I need to manage and improve my day to day anxieties. Thanks Michael!

I could not recommend him more highly!
