Macy is passionate about supporting individuals navigating eating disorders, trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She is especially committed to working with people in marginalized bodies and is aligned with the fat liberation movement, advocating for care that honors every person's right to exist in their body without shame or discrimination. Macy is also deeply connected to queer and neurodiverse communities and strives to provide affirming and inclusive care.
Macy takes a humanistic and relational approach to therapy, viewing the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative space where clients are the experts in their own lives. She believes healing occurs through connection, compassion, and creating space for authentic self-exploration. Her work is grounded in social justice and feminist frameworks, recognizing the ways systemic factors shape individual experiences and the role of community in healing. Macy enjoys incorporating creativity and self-expression into her practice, using art and other creative approaches to support emotional processing, insight, and connection. Outside of therapy, you can often find her spending time with her cat, attending local concerts, or enjoying time by the river.
My Therapeutic Lens
-
I take a humanistic approach to our sessions and believe that therapy requires a partnership that meets clients with warmth, empathy, and unconditional positive regard.
-
I believe that each of us is the expert in our own life and we all have the ability to make positive changes.
-
I believe that each individual is unique and, consequently, creative approaches to therapy and healing are necessary.
-
I approach our work in therapy through an intersectional framework, which calls for exploring my clients' lives and journeys through a systems perspective to understand and address systemic and oppressive barriers.
