About Michelon

Michelon Dorzin is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with nine years of experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression.

He has a background helping children, youth, and families in a variety of settings. That experience informs how he talks with people about family conflict, communication problems, and fatherhood concerns. He also supports men who face workplace stress, prejudice, or other pressure points that affect daily life.

In sessions he focuses on straightforward conversation and practical steps. He addresses issues such as domestic violence, sexual assault and abuse, and self-harm with attention to safety and clear planning. He also helps people handle young adult transitions and problems that show up at work.

He offers direct discussion about what is happening now and what might help next. That can include learning different ways to communicate, deciding on boundaries, or planning small behavioral changes. He works in English and accepts international clients.

To begin, he asks people to complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. The site uses a cancellable subscription for sessions, and fees vary by location.

BHow sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions

Evidence-based techniques often used with this kind of work include cognitive-behavioral style methods and trauma-informed practices. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and workplace stress. Trauma-informed practices attend to safety, pacing, and grounding strategies so people can address past harm at a manageable speed.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your concerns, goals, and preferences and recommend methods to try. Together you can adjust what you do in sessions based on what helps most, switching focus or mixing techniques as needed.

Confirm which session formats are available before you book, since specific options are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Phone sessions may use less data and can be a simpler way to connect when video is not practical. The emphasis is on making sessions work with everyday life rather than asking you to rearrange everything.
