MacKenna is committed to creating a warm, curious, and radically accepting space where clients feel fully seen, heard, and valued. She considers it an honor to walk alongside individuals on their healing journeys, offering support that is gentle, non-pathologizing, and deeply attuned to each person’s unique growth process.

With over a decade of experience working with young children and families, MacKenna now primarily supports older adolescents and adults. She brings a deep understanding of how early childhood experiences shape our emotional landscapes and believes that everyone carries an inner child deserving of love, care, and compassion. When appropriate, she integrates playfulness and lightheartedness into sessions, helping clients reconnect with these tender parts of themselves.

MacKenna recognizes that while processing pain and challenges is essential, so is celebrating moments of joy, beauty, and personal triumph. She helps clients move from feeling stuck in difficult seasons to cultivating a renewed sense of emotional safety, self-trust, and well-being.

A Licensed Master Social Worker working toward her LCSW in 2025, MacKenna integrates CBT and DBT techniques into her practice. She also has specialized training in trauma-informed herbalism, advocacy for individuals in altered states, and psychedelic integration therapy. As a certified yoga instructor with focus in trauma-informed mindfulness, she incorporates mind-body approaches to support holistic healing.
