Founder & Lead Therapist
Brandi McKenzie
LMSW, GRS
Founder, Elevate Counseling & Wellness · Clinical Social Worker · Grief Recovery Specialist
I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker in Michigan with over 10 years of experience, providing therapy to individuals navigating life transitions, stress, trauma, grief, and emotional overwhelm. I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches and tailor treatment to meet each client’s unique needs and goals.
My approach is holistic, client centered, and grounded in warmth, authenticity, and practical support. Therapy with me is a space where you can exhale, feel understood, and begin to heal at your own pace. I believe that growth and healing happen when you feel safe, supported, and empowered.
Life can look “fine” on the outside while feeling overwhelmed on the inside. Sometimes the hardest struggles are the ones no one else can see. Many of the women I work with are juggling careers, relationships, motherhood, and endless responsibilities, yet quietly struggling with anxiety, emotional exhaustion, grief, and feeling disconnected from themselves. You don’t have to carry everything alone. I will be honored to walk alongside you on your journey towards emotional wellness, balance, and becoming the healthiest version of yourself.
