Therapy Intern

Makenzie is a welcoming individual who believes everyone deserves a safe place to be themselves.

Makenzie values humor as an important aspect of relationship building and will utilize humor often throughout treatment. Makenzie plans to put her client first and tailor the treatment modality to their specific needs. Everyone is different and deserves to be celebrated!

Makenzie wants to serve many populations, however, she is most passionate about individuals with disabilities and their families. She has this passion because she is a sibling to someone with disabilities and understands the unique challenges that arise when loving someone with a disability. Makenzie is passionate about helping individuals understand how their environment and systems around them impact their lived experiences. In her free time, Makenzie enjoys reading, painting, and starting crafts but never finishing them. Makenzie also enjoys baking and indulging in more caffeine than necessary.
