About me
Good day and allow me to introduce myself. My name is Michael H. Feldler, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, a trained individual, family, group, trauma, and addiction/process specialist. I have over thirty-four years of experience working with children, adults, and family's in a variety of settings. In addition to my clinical training, I have for the past fourteen years worked as a supervisor in a college-based mental health clinic. Additionally, I am an experienced clinician/therapist working with children and families in acute distress or at risk. I have clinical experience and training working with trauma, suicide assessment, and process addiction, and codependency relationships. I am skilled in psychodynamic, client-centered, a variety of behavioral treatment modalities, interrelation, motivational, and family modalities. I believe in the importance of listening to what is being said, recognizing the relevance of motivation towards healing, and providing a safe and secure space to relate both thoughts and feelings. Often times what brings you into treatment or therapy is just the tip of the iceberg and with exploration we can work on both the direct causes as well as the underlying measures towards health and personal growth. The essence of life is to feel complete, reduce loneliness, and isolation, and ultimately minimize those influences that prevent us from being "the person(s) we want to be." I look forward to hearing from you, establishing a positive and secure relationship and working on what brings you to a helping environment.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Prof. Michael Feldler. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Professor Felder is thoughtful, insightful, and a good listener. He is very respectful of our issues and genuinely interested in our success.
Professor Felder is currently helping me through one of the most difficult losses I've had. He has been available during moments where I felt crushed and alone. I am so grateful I found him!
Great listener , very knowledgeable
Highly recommend. Ethical, respectful, with real lived experience.
I'm very grateful to Prof. Feldler for the help and advice received. It has made a very positive impact on my life.
I am loving working with Prof. Felder - he genuinely listens and has helped guide me to solve many issues
Dr. Felder was able to help me with my immediate needs of self harm reduction and is continuing to help me with long term goals. He is obviously experienced and skilled. My sense is that most other therapists on this platform are not capable on his level.
The best therapist on the planet! I highly recommend Prof. Feldler. He is truly an expert!
Prof. Felder is intelligent, compassionate and keenly in tune with what a patient needs to connect via a remote session. He is professional, experienced and someone highly recommended if there is a lived experience that few would understand. He walks with his patients, seeks clarity, and makes sure they know, he is ethically, professionally and skillfully there. A great listener and translator of information., someone new to therapy will benefit from his level of support.
Prof. Feldler is a great psychiatrist. It sometimes feels like he's talking a bit slow but every sentence that comes from him makes you think and he gives the feeling that he understands your situation so well and so quickly. Highly recommend
I am very satisfied with Prof. Michael Feldler. I have had 3 sessions so far and i have to say, i am understanding things in life a little better. I decided to engage in therapy to work on one specific topic, after 2 sessions with him, he learned a lot about me and my struggles and what is WITHIN ME. He asked if i was okay working on another topic first that will assist and help with this other thing. I was extremely happy with his suggestion. He did offer to not do that and only work on what i initially came in to do if that was my only main focus. BUT HE WAS RIGHT, i need to "fix" one thing before the other. He is extremely flexible, understanding, and very knowledgeable. I am so glad we were paired. I have been with many therapist, most of the time leaving with a feeling that i did not receive what i was hoping for. I am confident we will come to a level of acceptance within my worries. THANK YOU Prof. Michael Feldler! I am looking forward to every session we have and the progress you are going to help me make.
Great listener, highly recommend
Prof. Feldler is a really calm, respectful and caring therapist. He has a lot of insights and shares them in a non-judgmental way. At the same time, he is always very appreciative for me as the client too. He helps me think about myself in a deeper manner. I also really like that near the end of every session, he would schedule the next session for continuity.
Prof. Feldler does a great job of listening and supporting me. I feel he truly understands me. And as a result, he is able to provide meaningful suggestions and guidance that help me keeps things in perspective and enable me to navigate my situations. He also makes himself available and checks in with me between sessions, which I appreciate. I would highly recommend him
Prof. Feldler is great! Thank you so much!
Highly recommend. I could not have wished or imagined a better fit.
Awesome psychologist
My time with Professor Feldler has been an enlightening one. I've felt heard and was given various perspectives on my situation, which ultimately helped me create a better work-life balance. I'd be happy to recommend Micheal to anyone.
Prof Felder genuinely cares for me & my wellbeing. He listens and remembers my concerns and struggles and helps me to work through them in a way that I may not have seen on my own. I look forward to speaking with him weekly. He has a gift for what he does and I so greatly appreciate that he shares it with me. He is respectful, professional, polite, & kind in his approach and that makes me feel comfortable to tell him everything that is weighing heavily upon me. He has helped me a great deal and I know he will continue to do so. I have recommended him to my friend, Patty Wilkinson, who has recently began therapy with teen counseling & I cannot wait to see the positive impact it has on her life as it has had on mine! I cannot recommend him enough & words just cannot possibly express my gratitude. I’m so glad I was assigned him and he to me. Perfect placement. Thank you.
Professor Feldler is extremely in tune with his expertise and not only provides a neutral third-party view but finds the little things that make a person tick and becomes someone you feel comfortable to reach out to. I’ve been to therapy multiple different times and this is the one time I feel I can and WANT to continue. Highly recommend.
Prof. Feldler was outstanding to work with! He truly listened without judgement and suggested reasonable solutions for our family. He was very helpful working with our teen and scheduled within our timeframes needed. He was very respectful towards our teen even during her trying times! Thank you for all your support. We truly appreciate you.
As sad as I am that our time abruptly came to an end I wouldn’t be where I am today with out Mike’s Guidance and understanding. He’s been with me through some very intense periods of my life and helped me not only build the skills I needed to succeed but also the confidence to be me in all areas of my trauma. I hope when things are financially easier I can return
I feel completely at ease with Dr. Feldler. I am confident in his expertise and he listens to me with no judgment or criticism. I’m blessed to have found him.
He's fantastic. Knows his stuff, listens, and offers solid advice and insight
Professor Feldler is a very good therapist. He really listens to you and understands where you are at and helps you discover where you want to go. He is very knowledgeable in a wide range of different therapies, very easy to talk to, and very empathetic and trustworthy. I am really amazed at his responsiveness and intuitiveness. I am so grateful for his help going through this difficult time in my life as well as his help in healing past wounds and trauma. I would recommend him to everybody seeking a professional therapist.
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you guys for being available to people with problems they can handle
Very helpful to apply to my schedule and great therapist.
Understanding, great listener, sensetive
Professor Feldler is absolutely fantastic. He is extremely responsive, very caring, and makes me feel heard. He offers explanations and insights that are super useful.
Prof Fiedler understood my issues right away, went great length to gather all details and provide the most useful advice. I am a changed person now and I'm very glad that I got to work with Michael
Prof. Feldler is amazing best therapist I’ve ever had. Truly listens and makes you feel seen & heard
Great therapist. He will be able to identify issues and work with you to find the best solution(s). Highly recommend.
Prof. Feldler has made a profound impact on my personal development and ability to cope with obstacles in life. I am always surprised by his ability to encourage me to rediscover myself in every session. He has become a friend, a close confidante, and a trusted counselor within a few sessions. I look forward to our sessions every week/month.
Prof Felder is great! Knowledgeable, insightful, patient and a wonderful sense of humor.
It's amazing what he remembers. Either he takes great notes, or his memory is incredible. He listens and tries to get me to think about what I can do to help myself without him telling me outright. But, after a little bit of me struggling and giggling oddly, he will explain why I do what I do.
In the few weeks of knowing Prof. Feldler he is the only therapist I've known that has actually gotten me to think outside the box, to really get into the roots of what's causing a lot of my anxiety and depression. I'm still learning everyday but very thankful that he gave me another way to look at things.
