Getting to know Mackenzie Westover

Hi there, I'm Mackenzie! Feeling overwhelmed and not sure where to start? You are not alone. I have helped clients in reshaping anxiety, relational stressors, and grief with curiosity and compassion. My goal is to help you feel empowered, confident, and connected through your personal journey of healing. My focus Dealing with self-doubt and relational stressors? I work with young adults and teens in navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, and self-esteem challenges. Together, we can develop and strengthen skills your already hold, and build insight to conscious and unconscious patterns. My approach I use narrative therapy to support you in creating new ways to view your experiences. My approach is collaborative and exploratory, allowing space for healing and change. You are the expert of your journey, and I have the pleasure of joining and being invited. I may also integrate attachment styles to aid in recognizing patterns and storytelling. My communication style I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive environment. I engage in gentle challenging when needed, and will approach all interactions with empathy. When we are working through something challenging, you can expect me to be patient and attentive. My journey to mental healthcare My journey into therapy was piqued through exploring how impactful life experiences can be. Through my work with grief, it has shown me how resilient humans are, and the power of stories. Personally, I am driven by the belief that although experiences can shape us, people are more than their experiences and symptoms. My goals for you I view therapy as a collaboration. Together, we will set goals that matter to you. Whether it is improving self-esteem, building stronger relationships, or creating a new sense of normal. As we continue our journey and gain new insight, these goals can grow with us. It is important for goals to stay meaningful and supportive to your journey.
