Michael J. Salas is a mental health counselor and therapist in Dallas, Texas. He is the founder and owner of Vantage Point Dallas Counseling Services in the Uptown area of Dallas. The therapy and counseling he provides helps people deal with issues relating to anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and relationship issues. In anxiety therapy sessions, Michael pushes people to learn about the basis of their problems with anxious feelings. He utilizes a variety of therapy approaches and modalities, but primarily focuses on using Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to help clients with such problems.
Michael is respected in his work with anxiety because of his openness about "practicing what he preaches." In therapy sessions and presentations about anxiety, he is willing to show a level of vulnerability by discussing his own dealings with anxiety in his life. He can talk openly about how Cognitive-Behavioral strategies have helped him understand what triggers fear and worry, and how he discovered ways to deal with these thoughts. As a result, he is better able to identify with the struggles that each of his clients face, which helps him to quickly connect with those who he is working with.
Michael has worked with anxiety in a variety of settings. He has provided individual and group counseling to help those dealing with fear and worry. He has helped elderly patients with dementia and their families deal with changes relating to illness and aging. He has also helped people understand how anxious thoughts and feelings can play in to substance abuse. Because of his well-rounded history of work-experiences, Michael is able to effectively push people past their fears and towards contentment that may have seemed so elusive before.
