Kaniecia Mixon is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 15 years of clinical experience supporting individuals, children, adolescents, and families through a wide range of challenges. She holds a B.A. in Psychology and an M.S. in Counseling/Marriage and Family Therapy, and her background includes direct work with depression, anxiety, relationship and social concerns, parenting struggles, life transitions, anger management, ADHD, and trauma related to physical, sexual, or emotional abuse.

Much of her clinical work has focused on crisis stabilization, developing safety plans, teaching practical coping skills, strengthening natural supports, and increasing awareness around presenting difficulties. She has provided therapeutic and behavioral supports for children and teens ages 5 to 19 and has worked as a Therapeutic Behavioral Services Clinician offering case management and parent coaching to help caregivers manage behavioral concerns. She is also a Program Supervisor overseeing clinical staff who provide similar services to clients up to age 21.

Her counseling style is warm, authentic, and collaborative, rooted in respect, compassion, and a nonjudgmental stance. She practices with a trauma-informed, strengths-based orientation and blends approaches to meet each person where they are - including client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, solution-focused techniques, psychodynamic ideas, narrative therapy, and trauma-focused strategies. She often tailors sessions to individual needs and may incorporate art, creativity, and play when appropriate.

Mixon emphasizes partnership in therapy, helping people identify their goals, build skills, and stay accountable to the changes they want to make. She offers supportive guidance for those ready to move toward greater wellbeing and functioning.
