Michael Shumway, LAC

Michael Shumway, LAC, approaches counseling as an exploration of the human condition. Focused on adults and couples, particularly young men (16-30) grappling with transitions, starting over, betrayal, or existential questions. Michael blends cognitive and dialectical strategies but bases his work in Jungian depth and existential thought. Deeply rooted in a background of psychology, philosophy, and theology, he believes therapy is where souls labor for meaning. Michael values guiding clients through struggle, fostering insight, and helping them confront life’s profound questions. Beyond practice, he reads entirely too much, struggles through Jiu-Jitsu, and embraces nature with his wife and young son.
