Getting to know Mikaela Zuniga

I’m Dr. Mikaela Zuniga, a queer Latinx clinician dedicated to helping individuals, families, and communities navigate mental health challenges, trauma, and life transitions. With over a decade of experience in crisis stabilization, community mental health, and trauma-informed care, I specialize in working with BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, first-gen professionals, students, caregivers, and those supporting loved ones with severe mental illness. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and action-oriented, blending evidence-based practices like Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Psychoeducation to help you build resilience, break unhelpful patterns, and create lasting change.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
