About Mike
My role and specific work
Mike Wilkes, MA, LPC, LLMFT
Counseling & Marriage/Family Therapy
C.S. Lewis, author of The Chronicles of Narnia, wrote in The Problem of Pain: "It is easier to say 'My tooth is aching' than to say 'My heart is broken'. Yet if the cause is accepted and faced, the conflict will strengthen and purify the character and in time the pain will usually pass."
I see my role as one who joins and faces that pain with you. Through this work, I will see to it that you get what you need in order to mend your life.
