MiKenna Carpenter

I believe healing happens when people feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where clients can explore their experiences without judgment while feeling challenged and encouraged to grow.

​

I specialize in treating eating disorders across the lifespan, including anorexia, ARFID, binge eating disorder, compulsive exercise, body dysmorphia, and disordered eating. I also have specialized training in family-based therapy for eating disorders, helping families become an active source of support throughout the recovery process.

​

In addition to eating disorders, I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, complex trauma, and co-occurring mental health concerns. I work with children (ages 10+), adolescents, and adults, tailoring treatment to each person's unique needs, strengths, and goals.

​

My therapeutic style is both empathetic and direct. I believe in meeting clients where they are while providing honest feedback, practical tools, and unwavering support. My approach is person-centered and strengths-based, integrating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and somatic interventions to help clients build resilience, reconnect with themselves, and create lasting change.

​

Recovery is not about perfection—it's about building a life that feels meaningful, connected, and authentic. Whether you're navigating an eating disorder, healing from trauma, or struggling with anxiety or depression, I am committed to walking alongside you on your journey toward healing and lasting recovery.
