About Mikayla
Hello!
I'm Mikayla and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I also hold a Masters in Social work, Certificate in Leadership in Criminal Justice, and a diploma in therapeutic life story work. I am passionate about working with people with intellectual or developmental disabilities across the life span, having professionally worked with this population for 10 years. I enjoy working with children and families and working as one team to meet goals. I enjoy serving my community and finding ways to connect with each client on an individual level. I have experience in fields including forensic social work, counseling, program management, hospital social work, and teaching in a local college mental health program.
I work from a person-centered trauma-informed framework utilizing several therapeutic approaches based on what best fits your needs and goals. I value a collaborative client centered approach that builds on the strengths and resilience of each individual client. I value education and professional development to ensure I provide the best evidence based care.
In my free time you can find me catching wins at Disney trivia, reading a good book, or playing board games with my husband.
I look forward to walking along side you in your therapeutic journey!
