Relationships are hard; symptoms of anxiety and depression are real;
If you’re ready to get unstuck, let’s work together!
INTRODUCTION
Hi, I’m Michael Hilgers, M.MFT
I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor working remotely with clients around the world. I believe that everyone has the potential to change; to create new paths, to go in new directions. Life is hard. Counseling can help.
I’m fortunate to work with a wonderfully diverse group of clients, each with their own unique stories, challenges, and goals. Because of this, I approach each person I work with differently, avoiding a one-size-fits-all approach to counseling. My style is collaborative with the goal of helping you to live a better life.
MY SERVICES
Who I Work With

MORE ABOUT ME
Michael Hilgers, M.MFT
I’ve been helping people live better lives since 1996; over 20 years. I imagine I’ve got somewhere around 20,000 hours of working directly with clients although I’ve never stopped to actually count it all up.
I’m New Jersey born, Texas raised and currently living in the mountains of northern New Mexico. I completed my Master’s degree in 1996 in Marriage and Family Therapy with additional graduate hours to allow for licensure as a Professional Counselor in the state of Texas (17131) and more recently became a registered telehealth provider in Florida (#85).
I am also a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor in New Mexico (CCMH0213561).
