About Mackenzie

Mackenzie Pfeiffer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan with 13 years of counseling experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and the hard work of coping with life changes. Mackenzie also supports those facing grief, substance use concerns, and loneliness. She aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable and supported.

Mackenzie combines practical, evidence-based techniques with a down-to-earth style. She uses methods that help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also teaches mindfulness skills to reduce reactivity and increase calm in daily life.

Many people seek her help for addiction and substance use issues; Mackenzie brings more than two decades of experience in prevention and addiction work to those conversations. She also helps caregivers and people dealing with aging or geriatric challenges to manage stress and adjust expectations.

In sessions she creates a nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be spoken honestly. She encourages small, concrete steps that fit into busy lives. She pairs goal-focused ideas with exercises you can try between sessions.

Mackenzie asks questions, listens closely, and helps set realistic goals together. The focus is on what would make daily life feel better and more connected. To start, follow the site’s matching steps and schedule a time that works for you.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small actions that align with those values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on noticing patterns of thinking and behavior and trying practical experiments to change them. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices for paying attention to the present moment and reducing reactivity, which can help with worry and overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That means trying things, checking what helps, and adjusting as needed rather than following a fixed plan.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. They can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins on a lunch break, and let people use mindfulness or behavioral exercises in their everyday settings. Licensed professionals can guide goal-setting, teach skills, and help track progress remotely while adapting homework to daily routines.
