You’ve been holding it together for so long—on the outside, it may seem like you're managing, but inside, you're exhausted. You might feel disconnected, anxious, weighed down by the past, or unsure how to move forward. You may be looking for more peace, hope, or connection. Therapy isn’t about fixing you—it’s about coming home to yourself, gently and fully. If you're longing for a place to feel safe, supported, and truly heard, you’re in the right place.

We all struggle at times, and being a human in this life can feel lonely and like no one understands. Reaching out for help can be terrifying and may feel risky. I aspire to provide a safe, judgment-free environment for clients to come as you are, with whatever is going on in your lives. I see my role as a therapist as someone to apply my expertise to walking alongside you in your healing process and goals. I work with individuals & couples, including children age 4 & up, as well as adolescents & adults. My scope of practice includes, but is not limited to trauma, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and relational concerns.

Mikki is passionate about supporting kids and individuals as they discover their path to emotional wellness. She has dedicated her career to treating children, adolescents, and young adults with mental and behavioral health needs, and understands that all of our paths look a little different. Some of our journeys to wellness are filled with winding roads, some with large barriers, and some are hidden deep in the woods. Mikki’s goal is to partner with children, families, and individuals as they walk these paths, because nobody should have to do this work alone.

Life is challenging! Everyone needs support at one time or another. It can be hard to ask for help, maybe even be scary, and that is okay. Feeling scared could be the first step in an amazing journey of growth, positive change, and new opportunities. I work with preteens, teenagers and young adults. If you’re feeling stuck in a job, a relationship, with your family, or just with life let’s talk about it.

I am grateful to have the opportunity to explore challenges people are experiencing and help them feel empowered to overcome these. I have experience and enjoy working with people who may experience the world through a unique lense and those who may have a history of adverse life experiences. The typical client I work with is an adolescent or adult and may struggle with internalizing emotions and get easily overstimulated, have lower self-esteem, or challenges with social interaction. They may feel misunderstood by important people in their lives.

I use empathy and curiosity to explore the client's thoughts and feelings. Trauma comes in big T and little t experiences. Both negatively impact people, impeding their goals in life. Whether you are adjusting to a life challenge, medical, military, or developmental trauma, there are ways to move through it. Co-regulating and cultivating resilience is fundamental to this work. Using non-judgmental space is an important feature of this work as well. We collaborate and build trust, rapport, and goals of therapy. As sessions evolve, we expand on your ability to navigate life in a regulated, resilient, and resourced way.

Your story matters, and so do you. The experiences we have—especially early in life—shape how we see ourselves and the world. When those experiences bring pain, they can leave lasting wounds, affecting the way you think, feel, and connect with others. But no matter what you’ve been through, healing is possible. Therapy should be a safe and supportive space where you feel truly seen and heard. I work hard to create that for you, meeting you with warmth, compassion, and curiosity. Every moment in our sessions is an opportunity for healing, growth, and self-discovery. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, uncover your strengths.
