Welcome

My name is Michael Wilson, and I provide marriage and couples counseling in Tigard and Beaverton. I’ve been a therapist for 10 years, and my passion is helping couples achieve a more fulfilling and exciting relationship.

You’ve probably tried everything you can think of to find peace and contentment. You may even have tried marriage counseling before, but still you feel caught in a storm of negativity and pain. I named my practice Still Haven to convey this is a refuge amidst the storm. A place where my passion – helping – meets your ache to be helped.

It is never too late to begin healing a marriage in distress.

I practice an effective method of marriage counseling called Emotionally-Focused Couples Therapy. The goal of EFT is to help you and your partner access your deeper emotions so you can reach for one another in conflict, rather than pull away. If you’re curious, you can learn more about EFT by clicking here.

Please take your time to explore my website. You’re not looking for just any therapist, but the right therapist for you. Successful marriage counseling requires a quality relationship with a therapist you trust. I encourage you to give me a call (or use my incredibly convenient online scheduler). I’d love to speak with you directly so we can start your journey to a healthier, more fulfilling relationship today.

Marriage and Couples

It probably feels like – no matter what you try – you and your partner seem to drift further apart. You are so different, and sometimes it seems impossible that anyone could help you find one another again. You may even feel like you can hardly talk anymore because it always seems to end in an argument. The good news is, I consistently help couples just like you rediscover what it means to have a vibrant and fulfilling relationship. The question is, how?

Counseling for Men

One of the strangest discoveries I’ve made as a couples therapist is I became much better at providing individual counseling for men. It might seem strange, but truth be told, I don’t think there are individual problems. Problems seem to only arise in the context of struggling relationships. And for most men, that’s usually a feeling that they aren’t good enough for their partner. Maybe that’s how you feel. Maybe you came to this realization on your own, or, more likely, you’ve been told what you’re doing isn’t good enough and you should seek out counseling.
