For me, Mike has been the perfect blend of psychotherapist, life coach and friend. He helped me with issues of honesty, fear and isolation. He helped me navigate through some difficult real life problems , whether they be at home , work, or personal relationships.  He helped me get to the light through some dark tunnels. I’d highly recommend Mike Labbe.

I’ve been seeing Michael for a few years now and I’m so grateful to have him as my therapist. I have dealt with anxiety and depression all of my life so having Michael to help me through my ups and downs has been freeing. I’ve had therapists that stare at the clock but not him. We work on core issues and he gives me great feedback . I highly recommend Michael.

I started seeing Mike a few months after finding out about my then-husband’s affair. It was one of the most (if not the most) traumatizing events of my life. I felt shattered and lost. Mike helped me tremendously in the rebuild that would take place over the next year. Not only did Mike help me with that particular traumatic event, he also helped me identify my priorities and my goals in life and the obstacles that were holding me back. He helped me identify childhood traumas that are the root of my challenges today. And he gave me a toolbox of practical exercises and advice for everyday stresses and challenges. I trust Mike deeply and have recommended him to many friends who now also see him regularly.

I called Mike one night desperately seeking help getting out of a relationship. He answered and saw me soon after. It’s been about 4 years now and he has become like a second father to me. 

AB

Mike’s counseling is instrumental to my journey of being my best self and living my best life. He incorporates spiritual principles and science into his guidance, which is a perfect combination. I leave our sessions feeling empowered and at ease. 

LP

With his formal training as well as experiential wisdom, Mike has guided me through painful episodes of profound loss. Beyond that he has helped me reach new levels of self-awareness, forgiveness, and acceptance. I’ve been willing to go with him to places in my heart and mind that I would have never gone alone. I can’t imagine navigating these last years without his guidance.

    Michael Labbe Therapy Values

    MISSION

    My mission is simple. Lighting a path for each patient to find their own way to lead lives of contentment, compassion, and to flourish as human beings. Offering a safe and secure space with non-judgmental listening to suggest for patients where they might look, but not telling them what to see. Helping individuals and couples hear their own story and make sense of their past and feel prepared for a future.

    My therapeutic vision is to accompany you on your journey. The vision you hold for your life, the desires and wishes you long for, will be different from mine. I see the importance of not inflicting my hopes and dreams on to yours, and to let you venture securely into your future and not the one I could project on to you. I envision therapy as being all about you. You alone are the expert on your life.

    I promise not to judge, not to criticize, not to determine. It is my job as a therapist to hear and to listen and I promise to do that. My rooms are places I’ve pledged will be safe and completely confidential. My goal is to serve as a compassionate companion along part of your complicated journey, and to help you make sense of it. Only in the presence of such compassion can a patient allow themselves to experience their truths.
