About Mikala
Mikala Moffitt is a licensed clinical social worker in Florida who brings four years of focused mental health experience to her practice. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and the effects of trauma. She also supports those struggling with self-esteem, motivation, and addictive behaviors.
Mikala creates a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak openly about what’s on their minds. Her approach is straightforward and practical. She listens first, then works with each person to set small, reachable goals.
Background and approach
Sessions often include talking through unhelpful patterns and trying simple exercises to change them. She uses tools that make day-to-day life easier, not just ideas on paper. Mikala draws on several therapeutic methods such as client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and motivational interviewing.
These approaches help with mood, coping skills, and making meaningful changes. She also uses narrative and solution-focused elements to help people rewrite stressful stories and find concrete next steps. People come to her for a wide range of concerns including relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, anger, career stress, and compassion fatigue.
Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, domestic violence, post-traumatic stress, sexual assault and abuse, and feelings of guilt or shame. Sessions are offered in English and are provided through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Mikala emphasizes collaboration and steady progress so each person can build the skills they need over time.
How her approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust. The therapist follows the person’s lead, helps reflect what they say, and supports them in finding their own answers. This approach is useful for people who need a calm space to process emotions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Sessions use practical exercises and small behavior steps to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and ease low mood. Motivational Interviewing is a short, focused way to tap into what matters most and boost readiness for change. It can help with motivation, addictions, and making life adjustments.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Mikala will discuss what feels most helpful and adapt methods to match personal goals and preferences. That way each person gets a plan that fits their situation and comfort level.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text is useful for quick check-ins or when typing feels easier than talking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, parenting, or daily life while keeping the focus on steady progress.
