More about Makayla
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Missouri with over three years of experience as a clinical therapist. I have experience working with individuals from various walks of life with varying concerns including attachment issues, trauma, depression, stress and anxiety, parenting problems, self-esteem, and family conflict. I have extensive experience working with adopted individuals and individuals who have experienced childhood abuse and neglect.
I believe that therapy requires a relationship centered around empathy, understanding, trust, and non-judgement. I practice acceptance of all clients regardless of age, gender, race, sexual orientation or identity, or religious beliefs. I work with you to establish a therapeutic approach that feels right to you and have experience in providing relational therapy, attachment-based, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical (DBT), trauma focused, solution-focused brief (SFBT), motivational interviewing, and family systems.
Your choice to seek help demonstrates bravery and willingness to take the steps to heal and improve your life. If you are willing to take more courageous and vulnerable steps, I am ready and able to support and empower you to reach your goals.
It would be my pleasure to work with you, and I look forward to starting your journey together!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
