Getting to know Aimee Mikalinis
Hi there, I'm Aimee!
My name is Aimee Mikalinis. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a registered Art Therapist, specializing in trauma. I hold a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Master’s in Art Therapy, both from Phillips Graduate University.
My approach
I most commonly use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as my therapeutic approach. I am also well-trained in CBT, EMDR, and Strength-based therapy.
My focus
I typically work with adolescents, adults, and mature adults. I am most comfortable treating PTSD, other trauma and stressor-related disorders, mood disorders, personality disorders, self-harm, dissociative disorders, and paraphilic disorders.
My communication style
I like to create a space for my clients that fosters respect and understanding as well as support and accountability. Working with me will feel empowering and motivating.
My journey to therapy
I wanted to be a therapist since I was 12 years old. I was inspired by my grandmother, who is a psychologist. I was a peer counselor in high school and have worked in some form of mental health care for 16 years. I am inspired by helping people find strength when they feel they cannot.
My goals for you
Treatment goals are client-driven and frequently reassessed to maintain optimal results.
My first session with you
In the first session, I will review basic policies, gather information to assess what we will be working on, and allow my clients to get a feel for whether we are a good fit. I will review the stages of therapy and what to expect from future sessions, as well as my style of therapy and how we will approach your concerns.
