Hypnosis, Family Constellations, Somatic and Depth Psychology all reach the subconscious for deep lasting change.
Why does this keep happening? Why can't I let this go? Why do I find myself in the same relationship over and over? Most of our personal challenges in life come from events in our early childhood or are passed down from trauma in our families. Theses things are challenging to heal or transform when we either don’t remember what they are or never knew to begin with. Even with events we do remember it can be hard to get to a place of transformation. That is why I work with modalities that get deep into the the unconscious so that change can take place on that deep level that is very challenging to get to with thinking and talking.

Sometimes we can be unkind to ourselves, feel disconnected in our relationships or overwhelmed by life's problems. I believe counseling is a learning process. I will work with you to develop a compassionate understanding of who you are and new insight about areas in your life where you want support to change. I am passionate about working with individuals and families to support mental health and healing from addiction. I believe our well-being is informed by a healthy connection to family and community. In the therapy process I incorporate perspectives including relationship attachment, developing insight through mindfulness and understanding the effects of trauma.

My primary therapeutic goal is to support individuals in their journey towards healthy and sustainable growth, including resolution of any past trauma. Often when faced with change or difficulty, people may feel anxious not knowing what to expect or they may fear a potential outcome. I enjoy providing space to be curious, explore factors in life contributing to these feelings and help individuals develop skills to help manage this distress. By learning how our past and current stressors impact our lives, we can learn about ourselves and grow.

I believe that life is full of both beauty and pain. It is in the midst of navigating our deepest wounds that healing is found and beauty is restored. I believe that therapy is a sacred space where healing is found and autonomy is restored.

Mackenzie Wild is a Couples Therapist practicing Emotionally Focused Therapy. She specializes in competing attachments, for instance couples with young children, couples with combined/blended families, or couples with involved grandparents or in-laws. Often couples disengage and become distant under the pressures of daily living. Through couples counseling, our work together can add breathing room and warmth so that the couple can turn toward and support each other during stress. EFT is evidence based and integrates trauma to establish new relational patterns, which improve connectedness and intimacy by changing the root.

My experience is with children, adolescents, and adults with issues of depression, anxiety, abuse, parenting issues, chronic pain, illness, and PTSD/trauma. I use play and art therapy techniques for children who have difficulty verbalizing their emotions. I use outdoor counseling techniques for more active clients such as teens and children. Additionally, I practice therapeutic bodywork. Overall, I offer a safe refuge of a collaborative therapeutic relationship for the traumatized, depressed, or anxious client where they will hopefully gain new coping skills, boundaries, and relationships to replace the traumatic pain they have left behind. https://fluxtherapyllc.wordpress.com

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
