Michael Caputo, Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT)

My clients describe me as:

a collaborative listener who aims to gently, respectfully draw out the hopes you have for a better life. I am approachable and eager to assist.

Something to know about my approach is:

I focus on accepting the negative thoughts, feelings, and beliefs and committing to what matters for a more fulfilled life. We call this approach Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a proven method for dealing with mental health.

Together, we will:

talk about refocusing energy from negative thoughts and feelings to pursuing a meaningful life. We'll look at what matters to you and what gets in the way of your purpose. We'll use mindfulness techniques to observe how we think and feel.

I specialize in working with people who:

deal with depression, anxiety, grief, difficult life transitions. I specialize in working with couples and also with adolescents. I also work with men who are seeking therapy, perhaps for the first time.

I became a therapist because:

It is a privilege to help as people continue on a journey of improvement. I enjoy prompting others to learn, to grow, to thrive.
