About Michael
Michael Bombka is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) with 25 years of professional experience. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. He offers practical, straightforward support aimed at changing unhelpful patterns that get in the way of daily life.
Michael favors a clear, conversational style in sessions. He listens to the immediate problem and then works with the client to set concrete goals. He uses methods that focus on thoughts, feelings, and behaviors together rather than only talking about the past.
His approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and test unhelpful thoughts and habits. He also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to look at how relationships and personal values shape behavior. For people with painful memories, he lists EMDR and hypnotherapy among the tools he can use.
Sessions move at a practical pace. Michael helps people notice patterns, try new responses, and track what changes. He explains options plainly and checks in about progress so adjustments can be made.
People considering a first session are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule an appointment. Fees vary by location and therapy is provided through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How his approaches translate to online work
Michael uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy online to help clients spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors in daily life. CBT sessions focus on concrete exercises, monitoring reactions, and trying small changes between meetings.He also uses Attachment-Based Therapy concepts to examine how relationship patterns affect feelings and reactions. That can help when anxiety or relationship concerns repeat across different people and situations. Client-Centered Therapy informs his approach to listening and keeping the conversation focused on each person’s goals and values.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He will review what helps most, try approaches in short blocks, and adjust based on what the client prefers and how they respond. Goals and methods are discussed together before moving forward.
