Cornerstone

Michael Swett, LMSW, is a primary therapist at Cornerstone Healing Center in Scottsdale, where he brings both compassion and personal insight to his work. Inspired by witnessing the struggles of his loved ones, Michael was drawn to therapy as a way to help others navigate life’s most challenging moments. Just as a doctor specializing in cancer often has a personal connection to the illness, Michael’s own experiences have fueled his commitment to supporting clients on their journey to healing and self-discovery.

Michael’s therapeutic approach is grounded in Narrative Therapy, which helps clients reframe their personal stories and uncover new perspectives. He specializes in working with individuals dealing with degenerative brain functioning, delusions and hallucinations, and grief counseling. His goal is for clients to leave therapy with a stronger sense of self and a clearer understanding of the perceptions and patterns that may be holding them back.

Outside of his work, Michael enjoys gardening, playing guitar, and spending quality time with his wife and children. A lover of philosophy and reflection, one of his favorite books is Siddhartha. Michael’s dedication to creating a safe and supportive environment ensures that every client feels secure and valued as they engage in the therapeutic process.
