I don’t believe therapy is about fixing what is wrong with you. Most of the ways we struggle today developed for a reason—they helped us adapt, protect ourselves, or make it through something difficult. I work primarily with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, and major life transitions. My approach is rooted in Gestalt therapy, with mindfulness, somatic awareness, and parts work woven in. Rather than only talking about what happened or trying to figure everything out intellectually, we’ll also pay attention to what is happening right now—what you notice in your body, what emotions show up, and where you get stuck. I see therapy as a place to get curious and experiment with something different. There isn’t a predetermined version of you that we’re trying to get to; the work is about developing greater awareness, having more choice in how you respond to your life, and discovering what feels true for you.
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.
Hi there! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate who provides person-centered counseling for adolescents and adults. I work alongside clients navigating anxiety, grief and loss, substance use, trauma, life transitions, and questions of identity, meaning and purpose. I believe meaningful counseling begins with creating a safe space where clients feel heard, respected, and free to explore their experiences without judgment. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, incorporating ACT, CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing with person-centered counseling, mindfulness, and substance use treatment. For clients who desire it, I also offer faith-integrated counseling, incorporating Christian faith and spiritual practices into the counseling process while respecting each client’s beliefs, values, and goals.
