Get to know me
Hi! I’m Michaela Luck!
I wound up being a counselor after many years of me-search and research. I traveled internationally, worked for a church, went through my own bouts of trauma and started nerding out on trauma to figure out what the heck was happening to my body. I wanted to make sense of why my body was responding the way it was, and fell in love with researching trauma and responses. I also had an amazing counselor who met me where I was and showed me that emotions do matter and helped me feel safe in them. This all led me back to school to get my Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Now, I love my job. I love advocating for people and meeting them where they are. I love implementing my own knowledge and education to help people understand their responses to make sense of them. I also love helping others figure out how to do life well by implementing boundaries, healthy communication and fun.

I am very person centered. This means I approach every session and every person different and meet you where you're at. If that means diving into emotion, lets do it. If that means making a bucket list goal setting, lets do it. I believe you know what you need and I want you to trust that. I'll help navigate and guide, but you have the answers.

I usually work with 20 somethings, teens, kiddos couples and families. I've worked with many more than this and am definitely willing to work together if we're the right fit!
