ABOUT
Michael Regula MHC-LP
I bring a depth of lived experience—from SEAL training and operations to teaching in inner-city schools, and, of course, clinical work. My therapy is compassionate, focused, and results-driven—grounded in real, lasting change. With me, you'll gain clarity, structure, and meaningful progress—not just reflection. The goal: a more authentic, connected, and purpose-driven life.
My approach is collaborative, dynamic, and solution-focused, drawing from modalities including CBT, narrative therapy, and choice theory. If you’re ready to create a more enjoyable and meaningful life, explore the impact of your identities, and challenge the stories you've been telling, use the link below to book a free consultation. Let’s talk.
My clients include [both straight and gay] students, creatives, traders, entrepreneurs, executives, as well as individuals navigating life, relationships, and career transitions—post-college, post-divorce, and even post-incarceration. I also work well with anyone feeling stuck in unfulfilling jobs, relationships, or simply caught in the quiet weight of New York City.
I work best with those who want more than just insight—those who want progress.

SERVICES
Psychotherapy + Counseling
Psychotherapy and counseling offer a supportive space and alternate perspectives for those dealing with stress, anxiety, life transitions, or unhealthy patterns that feel hard to break. We'll focus on helping you gain clarity on your challenges and then develop healthier, actionable strategies to make meaningful changes in your life.

Couples counseling helps partners improve communication, build trust, and navigate conflict more effectively. Whether addressing long-standing issues, a recent fracture, or simply choosing to strengthen your relationship, we'll create a structured and supportive framework to overcome your challenges to create a healthier, more connected and honest relationship.
Coaching + Consultation
Coaching and Consultation is a short-term, solution-focused approach designed to clarify actionable goals and provide tactical strategies for specific areas of growth. This modality is more for those facing transition, career decisions, or leadership challenges. This model includes direct guidance, accountability, and co-creation of actionable steps toward clear, measurable outcomes.
