I’m Mackenzie, and I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. I believe therapy shouldn’t feel stiff or scary. We’re humans sharing space and I’m in this with you. As a Marriage and Family Therapist, or “MFT”, I work with both couples and individuals. MFTs are trained with a systemic lens, which means I will not only focus on you and/or your relationship, but I will also take into context the greater systems that surround you. 

As a biblically trained counselor, I personally view counseling as a theological matter. Therefore, besides utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy, contemporary and more traditional psychotherapies, I believe all counseling deals with questions of redemption, faith, identity and meaning. The cure of souls begins with an interpretation of problems, a proposal for solutions and a goal that defines thriving humanness.
