A note from McKayla

Child, Adolescent, Teen and Adult Therapist

I am proud to hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grand View University. I believe that successful therapy hinges on a strong therapeutic relationship and rapport. Drawing from person-centered theory and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, I work to create a genuine, supportive, and safe space for clients to embark on their healing journey.

Outside the office, I cherish time with my family, enjoy running 5ks with my sister, and find relaxation at the campsite
