Mike was introduced to primary care behavioral health while earning his doctorate at Xavier University in Cincinnati, OH. His predoctoral internship at Cherokee Health Systems in Knoxville, TN, and post-doctoral fellowship at the Cincinnati VAMC, were heavily focused on integrated behavioral health in both primary and specialty care settings. Presently, he is the Director of Behavioral Health at HealthSource of Ohio, providing direct clinical care as a BHC while also leading implementation of the PCBH model across the organization. His most exciting current projects are HSO’s new postdoctoral fellowship program in PCBH, and his efforts to build a behavioral science curriculum for HSO’s family medicine residency. He is notorious for having entirely too many interests and hobbies; foremost among them are gardening and cooking, martial arts, reading nerdy sci-fi and fantasy books, and playing tabletop games with friends and family.
