Difficult experiences are something that we as humans all go through as we progress through life. Depression, severe stress, anxiety, life transitions, career struggles, relational issues, divorce, domestic abuse, grief/loss, and trauma are just a few of life’s blows that come at us at any given time. If managing these life situations are too daunting, consider seeking counseling services.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience as a social work professional. I specialize in providing individual and family counseling services with having worked with populations such as: military families and veterans, domestic violence survivors, adolescent populations in their school setting, hospice patients and their families as a bereavement counselor.
When working with clients, I like to utilize a non-judgmental approach and work to meet clients where they are in their life’s journey. In today’s society where there are messages of how we should look, how we should live or what success looks like, I off a safe place for my clients to discover their authentic self through the use of theocratical approaches, talk therapy and educational materials.

McKenzie is wonderful, wise, steady, and kind. I was supported by her during some really intense personal transitions and I always left our sessions feel clear, capable, relaxed, and ready for what was next. I can't recommend her enough if you are lucky enough to work with her!

McKenzie has been a great help to me. She helped me to realize what I needed to work on, and work through to get to a better place. Her help went beyond our calls, as she sent me tools in between our sessions to keep me focused on how to help myself. I would strongly recommend McKenzie, she has been amazing!

Mackenzie has been great. I have found our sessions to be extremely helpful and look forward to our next sessions. She listens carefully and frequently asks to revisit things I have said in conversation to understand better or get more information on a topic I might have otherwise overlooked as important. I have recommended better help to family and look forward to continuing!

McKenzie is great! Super helpful in asking challenging questions, reviews previous weeks conversions and offers guidance/direction on what to think about for the next week.

I was hesitant about therapy at first. (Only because I thought I would feel weird to talk about my feelings) until I met McKenzie. She is so great! Listens so well, gives the best advice, knows exactly what I need to hear and do to grow. I always looked forward to talking to her. Anyone working with her as their therapist would be very lucky!

She is probably the best therapist i have had. She actually takes me seriously and genuinely cares about her patients.

She takes her time, and listens! I feel heard and understood. McKenzie has a way of breaking down big problems down. When I finish my session, I feel like I can focus on the small rather than the large overwhelming problem. I feel like I can approach my problems in a different way with her help. I feel more secure and confident than I have in the past.

McKenzie has been a great help during and following my divorce. Her kind guidance during our phone sessions and articles and insights in between our sessions has been vital in this difficult time.

McKenzie is a thoughtful and understanding therapist! I've been working with McKenzie for about three months, navigating big life changes with regard to my health, career, and family. McKenzie is a great listener and problem solver - I trust her completely.
Written on Jun 13, 2022 after therapy with McKenzie for 3 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, self esteem, and coping with life changes
McKenzie, in two sessions has listened to my every concern (and after a long time of neglecting myself- there is a LOT). She takes everything I tell her with respect and concern and offers gentle advice to help me navigate my emotions. I could not have asked for a better counselor. She messages me with prompts but doesn’t overwhelm. And when I see that she’s messaged, I light up, because I know she cares, it’s not just her job, she truly cares!!
Written on Jun 09, 2022 after therapy with McKenzie for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, grief, bipolar disorder, and adhd
McKenzie is incredibly kind, insightful, attentive, and supportive. She made me feel incredibly comfortable right from the start, and I never feel embarrassed or self-conscious sharing information with her (which is something I've struggled with in regards to other therapists in the past). I not only benefit from our sessions, but also look forward to them.

McKenzie is great! She is an amazing listener and has an unbelievable ability to develop a quick understanding of a person's needs. She is very knowledgeable, but is also very relatable.

McKenzie made starting therapy easy. After speaking with her over the course of the past few months, I have no doubt that she is knowledgeable and competent but it’s also like speaking with a friend when I talk to her. She listens, is empathetic, & also is solution-oriented. I would recommend her to any & everyone who needs assistance unpacking some of the complexities of life. She’s great & I’ll be sticking with her.

I've worked with several online counselors and have never felt as cared for or supported by another counselor as I have with McKenzie. Utilizing several different communication tools, we have meaningful connections often.

I have tried counseling several time over the past few years and I have never felt comfortable opening up. McKenzie has 100% changed that for me! She is wonderful at what she does. She truly listens to me and gives me the best feedback. I trust her advice. In the past, most counselors have used the mirroring method which contributes very little.

My first session provided me with an extreme sense of relief and lifted a very heavy weight off of my shoulders. I have always been a bit skeptical about therapy in the past but McKenzie was very good at listening to what was bothering me and she gave me great insight on how I viewed things . I was very satisfied how my first session went and McKenzie gave me some great advice on where i should start on my journey.
