Hi! My name is Mackenzie, and there is nothing that brings me greater joy than being a helper, as Mister Rogers would say.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Registered Play Therapist™ who works exclusively with children ages 4-10 in the state of Arizona. I specialize in treating trauma, depression, and anxiety in children. Symptoms can include aggression, defiance, and other behavioral problems; recurrent anger, worry, or sadness; tantrums or meltdowns; and low self-esteem, including negative self-talk, low frustration tolerance, and difficulty making or maintaining friends. I also treat children who are neurodivergent (ADHD, autism, etc.) and twice-exceptional/2e (neurodivergent and gifted).
