About Michael
Prof. Michael Feldler brings a direct, experienced presence for people seeking help with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship strains, trauma, depression, grief, and a wide range of life challenges.
Background and approach
He is introduced as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York with 38 years of clinical work, including extensive training in trauma and addiction interventions and long experience teaching and supervising students in a college mental health clinic.
His practice emphasizes careful listening, exploring both immediate concerns and deeper patterns that contribute to distress, and helping clients identify motivations that support healing. Prof.
Feldler uses a mix of evidence-informed methods such as Internal Family Systems, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, client-centered work, and cognitive behavioral techniques to tailor sessions to each person’s situation. He has worked across individual, family, and group formats and has particular experience addressing intimacy, identity, grief, chronic health issues, and co-occurring challenges.
Those who engage with him can expect a collaborative effort to reduce isolation, strengthen coping, and move toward greater emotional balance and personal growth.
Bringing integrative therapies to online care
Prof. Feldler draws on Internal Family Systems and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide online work in clear, practical ways. Internal Family Systems views a person as made up of different parts and helps clients develop a compassionate relationship with those parts to reduce internal conflict and promote healing; it can be useful for trauma-related material, depression, and patterns of avoidance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values and practicing mindful acceptance of difficult thoughts and feelings while taking committed action toward meaningful goals, which can help with anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes.Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to identify which methods fit their goals and preferences, combining elements from different models when that best serves the work. This partnership helps tailor interventions to address immediate concerns as well as deeper patterns over time.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing scheduling that fits busy lives and providing multiple ways to stay engaged between sessions. These formats can make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from home, and use therapeutic tools in everyday contexts while working with a licensed professional.
