I bring a calm, steady, and thoughtful presence to the work. Clients often describe me as warm, gently humorous, and intellectually grounded. My practice is shaped by the teachings and wisdom of the Catholic faith, especially its understanding of the human person as a unity of body and soul, created for meaning and made for eternity. I find that many people of faith or traditional backgrounds want a therapist who respects those commitments and won’t dismiss or pathologize them.
I work especially well with anxiety, scrupulosity, family strain, and questions that sit at the crossroads of faith and daily life. I’m not drawn to trends or spiritual fads — I prefer a more timeless, human approach to healing — but clients of any or no religious background are also welcome. Above all, I want you to have a therapeutic space where you feel understood, respected, and able to explore the deeper parts of your story without pressure.
I specialize in work with children, adolescents, and parents, as well as women and trans/non-binary individuals struggling with a variety of challenges—including anxiety, depression, trauma, and work-, school-, and relationship stress. I have experience with neurodivergent populations, LGBTQIA+, and various faith communities.
I am a dedicated and compassionate licensed independent clinical social worker with a Master's in Social Work from Boston University.
I provide a proven mind-body integrated approach that helps adults heal from the impact of trauma, addiction, anxiety, interpersonal problems, self-hate, and more. I am a lifelong learner with vast training and experience in internal family systems (IFS), yoga, polyvagal theory, mindfulness, and self-compassion. I bring a nonjudgmental, compassionate, and open-minded to work with my people.

Welcome to my Headway profile! I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who provides psychotherapy online to clients in Massachusetts. I have been practicing clinical social work for five years now. I specialize in the treatment of PTSD and anxiety and I have advanced training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).
I believe healing begins by recognizing the strengths you already have. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), I take a person-centered, strength-based approach, helping clients heal from trauma, including generational trauma, navigate life's transitions, and build practical skills for lasting change. Along with working with individuals, I enjoy supporting couples and families, recognizing that lasting change often happens when the entire family system is strengthened. With three years of clinical experience and significant life experience, I strive to create a safe space where clients can quiet shame, build self-compassion, strengthen relationships, and move forward with confidence and hope.
Hi, I’m MaKenna. I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience supporting children, teens, adults, and families.
I’ve worked across a range of settings—including schools, community mental health, and family systems—which has shaped my ability to understand people not just as individuals, but in the context of their relationships, environments, and life experiences.
I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, trauma, family stress, and life transitions. I also have a passion for supporting parents, caregivers, and individuals in high-responsibility roles, including first responders, healthcare professionals, and other high achieving professionals.
My work integrates evidence-based practices with nature-based and experiential approaches. I believe healing and growth happen best in environments where you feel safe, understood, and genuinely supported- and that’s what I strive to create in every session.
