“A Therapist Who Genuinely Cares About Making a Difference ❤
I had the opportunity to work with Michael Soto, LMSW, when he previously worked at Northern Medical Center in Middletown, NY, and I can genuinely say that he stands out in a way I haven’t experienced before.
I’ve worked with several therapists over the years, and Michael truly cares about doing his job well and, more importantly, about making a meaningful difference in his patients’ lives.
He listens with **genuine empathy** and makes you feel heard, understood, and supported. No matter how big or small a problem may seem, he never dismisses what you’re feeling or makes you feel like you’re overreacting. He validates your feelings while also providing encouragement, guidance, and practical support to help you work through whatever you’re facing.
What stands out most is how invested he is in helping his patients move forward. He doesn’t just listen—he genuinely tries to help you find an answer, a different perspective, or a sense of hope when you’re struggling to find it yourself.
I’ve worked with probably 5–10 different therapists, and none of them provided the level of empathy, encouragement, validation, and genuine care that Michael has. You can tell that, for him, this work is about much more than simply earning a paycheck. He seems to find true fulfillment in helping people feel better, recognize their own strength, and find hope again.
That kind of dedication is rare, and it has made a genuine difference in my life. I’m incredibly grateful for the care and support he provided. ❤”
