"I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work personally with Michael. He used his extensive knowledge and understanding across many different disciplines to guide me through the process. He was kind and patient, but also sharp and focused. This work has changed my perspective on everything. Michael taught me to read and understand my own inner map so that I could navigate my way out of past trauma and psychological pain, while avoiding being triggered and trapped in present trauma again. It feels like having a superpower..."
Renae Brooks,

"My experience with Michael has been nothing short of transformative. While I have always believed in our inherent ability to heal and flourish, I lacked the knowledge of how to access it. Working with Michael has not only shown me how to connect with my inherent wisdom, but has also revealed the great potential I hold beyond my trauma. Through his unique approach, I continue to better understand the language of my instinctual consciousness, which both accelerates the healing of my trauma complexes and helps me unfold my genomic potential."
Isaac Hirsch,

"Michael is a natural healer. He works with the soul at its own level and gently coaxes it forward and nurtures it so it can return to its natural homeostasis. He is highly intuitive and has extensive experience and knowledge of how the psyche and soul merge and express in the body and mind, and how this manifests in a variety of behavior patterns all related to deep core wounds. He knows the essence of the soul and can create a safe and sacred space for it to step into. I have worked with many healers and none have come as close to a holistic integration of mind, body and soul as Michael has. I would highly recommend working with Michael."
Peter Pommerencke,

"A super exciting experience to meet and work with Michael. His approach to dreams and trauma, and the connection between them, is both exciting and very helpful. Personally, it has given me the help I have been looking for for many years."
Joel Wren,

"Michael is a visionary thinker in the field of alternative psychology. His unique ability to translate the complex language of seemingly unreadable dreams is astonishing. His work is nuanced, precise, and has helped me find a path to understanding my inner burdens. Michael was able to immediately identify my areas of need and uncover pathways to healing. Use what Michael can teach you to understand the instinctive wisdom of dreams, create healthier relationships, and build the confidence to integrate overwhelming emotions."
Emmanuel N,

"Michael is an exceptional support and healer. He has a keen eye and quickly understands your challenges on all levels. After understanding my issues, he helped me see the bigger picture of what was happening in my life, which led to many realizations and a deeper understanding of who I am and what I am capable of. Michael is honest, intelligent, empathetic and caring, and he has shown that from the beginning. I have been working with Michael for several years now, and every time we talk, I always learn more and feel better about myself. His words are powerful, and he has helped me strengthen myself over the years. I would not be anywhere near where I am today without the foundation Michael has helped me build."
Ashley Gann,
California, USA
"Michael's DreamCompass Sessions have been one of the most important methods I have experienced in my quest to get to know myself better. They have been crucial in allowing me to begin to recognize what my soul has presented to me as my purpose and calling. His sessions have helped me identify the wounds that have shaped my behavior my entire life, so that the light of my own consciousness could finally begin to heal them."
Seanette Holler,
Montana, USA
"To say that working with Michael has been life-changing is an understatement. It has been completely liberating. I went from understanding that I suffered from C-PTSD, and being told that it was untreatable and not even recognized by professionals, to experiencing freedom from the grip my trauma had on my entire life. "My relationship with everything, including myself, was transformed as I realized and experienced a whole new way of relating. My instinctual drives were fully activated and working for me instead of operating from a place of survival that inhibited my ability to live a full life in accordance with my genetic potential. "Michael was compassionate and clear in his understanding of biopsychosocial structures, and he always explained things that seemed overly complex in a way that I could understand and relate to from where I was. He has a deep knowledge of the mysterious dream world that holds the keys to our unique experience. It was as if he could see into your soul and guide you home. I am honored that his work has transformed my life, and by his ability to be a mentor and ally throughout the process. He navigates the underworld with you until you finally come up for air for the first time."
Edgar R,

"Michael, you're a hybrid dream machine. The Dream Mapping and DreamCraft Screenplay prompt knocked my legs out from under me and helped me see my dreams like never before. The prompt was fine-tuned like a European sports car. Me likey. Seriously next-level stuff, man."
Integrative Self-Analysis™ at the Magic Mask Workshop
For more than 20 years, I have used my own life as a test case, searching for what could reach the disabling pain, trauma-like symptoms, and emotional patterns that ordinary explanations could not. That search became a calling to help others uncover the Hidden Survival Patterns beneath their suffering, recover the parts of themselves survival pushed aside, and find their way toward greater vitality, purpose, and meaningful engagement with life.
I created Integrative Self-Analysis™ and the DreamCompass Method™ to help people identify the Hidden Survival Patterns that can remain underneath broken relationships, emotional exhaustion, repeated self-sabotage, and years of trying to understand themselves without lasting change.
What I have learned is that meaningful change does not always come from more advice, more explanation, or trying harder to control yourself.
Sometimes it begins when you can finally see what you had to become to survive and recognize how that old role is still showing up in your life today.
That is what we will explore together in The Magic Mask Workshop.
Bring one real-life situation where you still feel stuck. Through guided reflection, emotional reactions, body signals, relationships, dreams, and the symbolic world of Spirited Away, we will look for the Hidden Survival Pattern running through it.
We will explore what that pattern taught you to become, what it may still be protecting, what it is costing you now, and which real strengths you can keep without remaining trapped inside the role that created them.
This is not conventional therapy.
It is not another self-improvement lecture.
It is not a place where you are treated as something that needs to be fixed.
It is a 2.5-hour, in-person workshop for people willing to look beneath the role they learned to play and discover what parts of themselves may still be waiting for a meaningful place in their lives.
You may not change your whole life in one workshop.
But you may finally see something that has been difficult to see while living inside it.
I would be honored to explore that territory with you.
