Great to meet you!

Micayla Santa Cruz graduated from Gonzaga University with her M.A. in Marriage and Family Counseling and has been a therapist for over eight years working with children, teens, and young adults. She specializes working with teens and young adults navigating the nuances of this world with anxiety, trauma, and depression.

My approach to therapy

Micayla works through collaboration and transparency to provide a space that's full of empowerment and free of judgment to find the awareness needed to reveal your most authentic self. With a background in trauma and family systems, she draws from an attachment based lens within an emotion focused model to fit the needs of each of her clients.

What you can expect from me

Micayla holds up a mirror and provides a space to work together to meet your needs. Healing is not linear, but Micayla believes that everyone should leave sessions feeling hopeful and eager to continue a journey of growth and wellness in therapy.
