Hi, I’m Michael Hamerly, LPC, CAC II
As a father of four, husband of over 40 years, chaplain and former military pilot, I’ve faced my share of life’s turbulence.
Those experiences taught me the importance of connection, trust, and having a steady guide when navigating life’s challenges.
That’s why I’m passionate about helping others find their footing and create meaningful change.
Serving individuals and couples across Colorado, I’m here to help you turn frustration into peace, disconnection into trust, and stagnation into meaningful growth.
What to Expect
A warm, flexible process designed to help you move forward with clarity and support.
We’ll start with a low-pressure consultation, then go deeper in your first full session and follow a simple flow: connect, assess, and intervene.
Between sessions, you’ll use “TTT” challenges (Think, Talk, Try) and a rhythm that shifts from weekly to bi-weekly to monthly as you progress.

Talking with Mike is like talking with an old friend with a wealth of wisdom at his disposal. His counseling style is that of a conversation where those involved are thinking through and working on issues together, processing ideas as Mike gently nudges you toward clarity and understanding. He delivers wisdom and knowledge with compassion and gentleness while calling you to be your best self, and you will know you have a wingman on your side guiding you through your struggles and hardships.

Mike was wonderful in helping us navigate the choppy waters of life. His sessions gave us the tools to work through some issues as a couple, a family and on an individual basis. I had multiple breaksthroughs and A-ha moments during our time and it was life altering. Thank you Mike!

Mike is an absolutely phenomenal therapist and his approaches are life changing. I have grown and learned so much while being his patient. He is great at helping people understand how their history can impact their thoughts today and how to rewire the thoughts we want to change. I gained new perspective every appointment that has helped me internally and also helped me strengthen relationships. I can't recommend him enough!!

Highly recommend Michael. He worked with our son and with us as a family to give us insight and tools to better the family dynamics, relationship and overcome the situation. The outcome was wonderful and lasting for our son and our family. Michael is a very intelligent and thoughtful counselor with much valuable life, educational and applicable experience. He is a very good listener and compassionate and a good balance of truth, hard love and emphathy. He utlilzes techniques and excercises to enhance healing and lasting change and behavioral improvement. Goal setting and personal work are emphasized which lead to successful outcomes. I highly recommend Michael Hammerly! We previously had other counselors and were unsuccessful. Mike was a game changer for us.

Michael is an incredible therapist and an even better listener. From the very beginning, he created a space that felt safe, open, and judgment-free, which made it so much easier to talk about things I hadn't really put into words before. He's helped me understand my own patterns and quirks on a much deeper level, and that awareness has been life-changing. But what really stood out was how much he helped me grow in my relationship—especially around communication and emotional connection. I've come to understand myself and my partner in ways that have brought us so much closer. I always leave our sessions feeling grounded and supported. Highly recommend working with him.

I recommend Mike. Over the past 5.5 years I've worked with Mike through the bad and good seasons of my life, and truly enjoy meeting him still in my good seasons. I highly value his insight and candor, and I appreciate his ability to bring cohesion to my thoughts on a given topic. The positive change my life has undergone over the last 5.5 years is real, and I attribute a lot of that to my work with Mike. He has been there through it all. Thank you for everything, Mike. I don't think my life would be the same without you.
