About Provider

About Mia

Mia Mickenberg is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who has 15 years of experience in the mental health field, working with diverse populations, many different issues, and in various settings, including schools, homes, a college counseling center and a substance abuse prevention center. Mia enjoys working with and has a great deal of experience in counseling youth, adolescents, and adults. 

Mia believes that counseling is not a one-size-fits-all process; everyone is different and their counseling process will differ as well. She provides a safe space to explore life experiences and help you to identify and learn new solutions and coping skills for life’s challenges. Through the ebbs and flows of life we can hit hard times. Mia's goal is to help you through these times. It can get better, and counseling can help.

Mia uses a holistic and integrative approach to counseling, because as people we are not just our minds or physical selves but a combination of the two. She draws from various theories and techniques, including but not limited to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), reality, solution-focused, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing, as well as incorporating the creative arts. Whether you're struggling, or want to work towards thriving and being the best version of YOU, Mia would love to join you on your path.

Get to know Mia

Why did you decide to become a counselor?

After undergraduate school where I studied social justice. I decided I wanted to work on the individual level with people to get a better idea of what people need.

What’s one thing you wish all clients knew?

While therapy can be hard it is worth it in the end.

What inspires you?

I truly enjoy watching people grow and change as counseling progresses.

What can clients expect in their first session with you?

To get a chance to talk about their issues, their strengths and to ask me any questions they have about therapy or me.

What do you do for fun/on your time off?

I love to spend time with my family and friends. I also enjoy reading, writing and watching tv. And last but not least I like to spend time with my dogs outside!
