Cincinnati Therapy for Trauma, Anxiety, and LGBTQ-Affirming Care

Hello! My name is Mikaela Gregory, and I am a Licensed Social Worker in Ohio. I graduated with my bachelor's and master’s from the University of Cincinnati. I am honored and passionate about serving individuals and families over the last 5 years in the Cincinnati area. I am committed to services that are inclusive and celebrate all people from all walks of life. My professional background has been focused around supporting youth to meet a variety of mental health needs in school-based settings. However, I welcome anyone who is curious about learning how to manage emotions, improve relationships and learn skills to cope with the challenges life presents.

​

My approach is person-centered, playful, trauma-informed and focused on empowering individuals towards using their natural gifts. It is my belief that everyone deserves a safe space where they can pursue healing and feel affirmed for all that they bring to the world.

​

Areas of support I thrive in include treatment of ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, PTSD/Trauma, OCD, Family therapy, Grief, LBTQIA related struggles and healing from religious related trauma. I have found the modalities of DBT, CBT, Trauma-Informed Interventions and Play Therapy are often used as my foundation in sessions. It is important to me that these evidence-based practices can shape and bend to where you are at.

​

Outside of therapy I am always outside, usually with a cat, book, or craft. I am happy to see you consider taking steps towards healing and hope I am lucky enough to have the opportunity to support you.
