About Michael

Dr. Michael Haney is a Florida-based licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with three decades of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Background and approach

He emphasizes respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care while shaping conversations and treatment plans to fit each person's particular needs and circumstances. Dr.

Haney frames the work as collaborative and practical, supporting clients through life changes, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, and mood-related challenges. His practice draws on a range of evidence-informed methods including client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior skills, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused interventions.

Over 30 years he has also addressed issues such as communication problems, domestic violence, men’s concerns, panic and phobias, postpartum and seasonal mood disturbances, and trauma-related difficulties. He encourages taking the first step toward greater balance and well-being and offers steady support while clients pursue clearer goals and coping tools.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Dr. Haney commonly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy as practical frameworks in remote work. Client-centered therapy focuses on active listening, empathy, and helping clients explore their own goals; it supports issues like grief, relationship concerns, and compassion fatigue by centering the client's experience. Cognitive behavioral therapy breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete skill-building to manage anxiety, panic, mood symptoms, ADHD-related challenges, and stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the collaborative process. He works with clients to identify which methods feel most useful given current needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time as progress and challenges emerge. This helps create an individualized plan rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.

Online therapy with Dr. Haney uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for scheduling and communication style. These formats can make regular sessions easier to maintain and allow practical skill work between meetings, while enabling therapists and clients to focus on concrete strategies and mindful practices regardless of location.
