It is my passion to walk alongside people in their suffering and help them find the hope and healing they need. I work with individuals 13+ who are struggling with a wide variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, family of origin issues, and trauma.

Mikayla has been fantastic. She listens extremely well and was the first therapist I've ever had who takes my concerns seriously and helps me develop a plan to address them. Prior to finding her, I had had been to a number of therapists, all of which were very disappointing. Mikayla has made therapy not only engaging, but deeply effective and tailored to my needs.
