What's My Approach to Therapy?
My ideal clients are individuals, couples, or group members who feel stuck in painful cycles of disconnection, secrecy, or out-of-control sexual behaviors. If you’ve found yourself struggling with relational intimacy, wrestling with guilt and shame, or trying to repair the damage in your relationship, I want you to know that you don’t have to navigate this alone. I specialize in helping people who feel overwhelmed by these challenges find clarity, healing, and a path forward, whether from compulsive sexual behaviors or being the victim of infidelity.
My approach is compassionate, direct, and collaborative. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Instead, I take the time to listen to your story, understand the patterns that have shaped your struggles, and work with you to create practical steps toward healing and growth. I also work directly with those who have been impacted by infidelity, supporting both the injured partner and the relationship as a whole. Together, we’ll uncover not just the behaviors, but the deeper emotional needs and relational patterns underneath them.
With individuals, I help identify triggers, build healthier coping strategies, and strengthen your capacity for connection. With couples, I create a safe space where both partners can express their hurt, their hopes, and begin to rebuild trust—step by step. And in groups, I facilitate an environment where you can learn from others who are on a similar journey, offering both accountability and encouragement.
I draw from proven therapeutic methods as well as my years of experience working with intimacy challenges, compulsive sexual behaviors, and relational struggles. My goal is not just to stop a behavior, but to help you move toward deeper intimacy, healthier relationships, and a stronger sense of self.
If you’re ready to take the first step, I’m here to walk alongside you—not with judgment, but with understanding, respect, and the tools to help you heal.
My Practice & Services
At Rosenholtz Counseling and Coaching, I provide compassionate care for individuals, couples, and groups who are facing the challenges of infidelity, intimacy struggles, pornography use, and out-of-control sexual behaviors. My practice is grounded in the belief that healing begins with honesty and continues through supportive guidance, practical tools, and a clear path forward.
In addition to individual and couples therapy, I facilitate specialized groups that offer both accountability and encouragement. Group work allows clients to see that they are not alone while learning from others on a similar journey. These sessions are structured, yet flexible, providing a balance of shared support and professional guidance.
Beyond traditional therapy, I also offer coaching services for clients seeking personal growth, accountability, and strategies to move forward in their relationships and lives. Coaching extends the work of therapy by providing hands-on, goal-focused support for building healthier habits, navigating challenges, and sustaining long-term change.
My approach—rooted in my Feel, Deal, and Heal method—integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques with compassionate, practical coaching tools. Whether in individual sessions, couples work, or group settings, my goal is to help clients move from pain and confusion toward clarity, connection, and renewal.
How Psychotherapy Can Help
Psychotherapy provides a safe and supportive space to explore painful experiences, identify unhealthy patterns, and develop healthier ways of coping and connecting. It can help individuals gain clarity, reduce shame, and build emotional resilience, while offering couples the tools to rebuild trust, improve communication, and restore intimacy. With the right guidance, psychotherapy becomes a pathway to healing, growth, and lasting change.
What I Love about Being a Psychotherapist
What I love most about being a psychotherapist is the privilege of walking alongside people in some of their most vulnerable moments and witnessing the strength and resilience that emerges through the healing process. Every client?s story is unique, and I find deep meaning in helping individuals, couples, and groups move from pain and disconnection to clarity, trust, and renewed intimacy. For me, it is incredibly rewarding to see lives and relationships transformed when people discover hope and recognize their capacity to grow.
What I Usually Need to Know to Help
When I begin working with individuals, I usually need to understand not only the behaviors that are causing distress, but also the emotions, triggers, and life experiences that surround them. Learning about a client?s history, current challenges, and goals helps me identify the patterns that may be driving out-of-control sexual behaviors, intimacy struggles, or the pain of betrayal. I also explore coping strategies, strengths, and the support systems they already have in place so we can build on what is working while addressing what is not.
With couples, I focus on hearing both partners? perspectives in order to fully understand the relationship dynamic. This often involves learning about the history of the relationship, the impact of any betrayal or secrecy, the ways each partner communicates, and what each hopes to rebuild or change. Knowing these pieces allows me to create a balanced and compassionate treatment plan that addresses not just the behaviors, but also the deeper issues of trust, connection, and emotional intimacy.
On the Fence About Going to Therapy?
Here are some testimonials from past patients
"I was nervous about starting therapy and didn?t think it would make a difference. But after a few sessions, I realized how much I had been carrying alone. Having a safe space to talk openly without judgment changed everything for me. I finally feel lighter and more hopeful."
"At first, I wasn?t sure if therapy was for me?I thought I should be able to figure it out on my own. What I learned is that asking for help isn?t weakness, it?s strength. The tools and insights I gained have helped me break unhealthy cycles and feel more in control of my life."
"My partner and I were on the brink of giving up. We doubted therapy could repair the damage. But working with Mitchel helped us not only communicate better, but also rebuild trust we thought was gone forever. Therapy gave us a second chance."
"I used to think group therapy sounded intimidating. What I found was the exact opposite?it gave me encouragement and accountability. Hearing from others who shared similar struggles reminded me I wasn?t alone. It became one of the most powerful parts of my healing."
Important Factors for Choosing a Therapist
Choosing the right therapist is an important step in the healing process. Some of the key factors to consider include the therapist?s training and experience with the issues you?re facing, their ability to create a safe and nonjudgmental environment, and whether their style and approach resonate with you personally. It?s also important to feel a sense of trust and comfort, since the therapeutic relationship itself is one of the strongest predictors of positive outcomes. Finding the right fit can make all the difference in your journey toward healing and growth.
