In world full current events that the ways we coexist as human beings, we lack safe spaces to be vulnerable. Most often the struggles, whether with depression, anxiety, concentration, toxic workplaces, trauma, experiences with racism, among other stressors are not openly discussed, creating deeply rooted feelings of loneliness and isolation. Most often the hardest thing is asking for help, confiding in someone, talking about how you feel. The beauty of therapy is that it provides this safe space to work through and discuss these issues, recognize how they affect different parts of your life and work to address them.

Hello, I’m an LMFT and I thoroughly enjoy my work as a therapist. My name is Kylie Mackenzie, but you can call me Ky. I change my approach with everyone I see, generally speaking, because everyone heals in their own unique way. My most common theoretical approach is client-centered (we are equals) and psychoanalytic (I’m a blank slate) so the focus is purely on you with a split of problem solving and breaking down the emotional parts of the issue. I am very familiar with working with adults and teens. I have experience working with substance abuse and dual diagnoses.

Life’s transitions can shake your foundation, especially when they touch the most intimate parts of who you are—your body, your relationships, your dreams. Infertility, pregnancy loss, or medical trauma can leave you feeling untethered and questioning yourself, all while the world expects you to push through. But healing doesn’t come from ignoring the pain—it comes from honoring your emotions, rewriting the stories you carry, and reconnecting with your inner strength. Together, we’ll create space to rediscover clarity, trust, and meaning in your life.

As you consider working with a therapist, you are taking a step towards improving your life, examining what needs to be changed and building upon what is already working. Life can get better and you have the power to change it. During difficult times, it is important to either develop healthy support systems or utilize the ones that we already have. Seeking therapy is one piece of a healthy support system. You are acknowledging that some aspects of your life may not be going well and need to be changed. Therapy can help put life in perspective.
