Makayla offers a supportive, collaborative space to help you make sense of what you’re going through and move forward in ways that actually fit your life. She integrates evidence-based theories within a client-centred approach, meaning your work together is guided by your experiences, your goals, and what feels most meaningful to you.

Makayla works with individuals with a range of concerns, including, low mood, anxiety, life transitions, obsessive-compulsive tendencies, perfectionism, traumatic experiences, and low self-esteem. She also has particular experience supporting individuals with executive dysfunction and ADHD, and brings a neurodiversity-affirming perspective focused on understanding how your mind works and building strategies that support your goals.

Makayla draws from a range of therapeutic approaches–including emotion-focused therapy, cognitive behaviour therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical and behaviour therapy, mindfulness, psychodynamic and trauma-informed approaches. She also has an understanding of how life experiences shape who you are. Through this, she supports you in developing a deeper understanding of yourself. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method, she adapts her approach to fit you: your pace, your needs, and what feels most helpful in the moment.

Whether you’re looking for a space to talk things through, untangle what’s been feeling stuck, or work toward concrete goals, she offers a flexible approach that meets you where you are. Therapy with her is collaborative, grounded, and focused on helping you move through challenging times with greater clarity and self-understanding.
