Makini King

PhD

As a counseling psychologist with 10 years of experience, I use a compassionate, collaborative and authentic approach to help clients meet their goals.

I aim to create a safe and supportive environment for clients to fully and candidly express themselves in order to build an effective therapeutic relationship.

I work with a range of clients who experience general life stress, stress related to life-events, relationships and communication problems.

I also work with individuals who face marginalization based on their identity/group status, such as people of color and LGBT identified individuals.

I use a myriad of therapeutic techniques and have a background in the treatment of trauma, substance abuse, and sleep problems.

I have also done extensive work helping people with their goals around diet, nutrition and exercise. I have practiced in college counseling centers, community health clinics, and the VA.

Fees

I do not take insurance, but accept cash, credit or health savings account at the time of service. I charge based on a sliding scale (including consideration of gross income and number of dependents).
