McKenna Anderson

McKenna is currently pursuing her Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Western Seminary. She is passionate about helping children, teens, and adults feel understood and supported as they navigate life’s challenges.

Her therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, strategic, and trauma-informed. Drawing on her understanding of human development, she incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, play therapy, and the Gottman Method to help clients develop practical skills and create meaningful change. For clients who wish to incorporate their faith into the counseling process, McKenna can integrate Christian principles and a faith-based perspective into her work, while respecting each client’s individual beliefs and preferences.

McKenna has experience working with a range of clinical concerns, including depression, anxiety, and dissociation. She has a special interest in burnout, particularly among high achievers and busy parents in addition to a passion for supporting families, which includes couples counseling.

Outside of the office, McKenna enjoys exploring Florida with her husband, spending time at the beach, knitting, baking bread, and watching football.
