Hi, I’m MacKenzie — therapist, girl mom and professional breaker of burnout cycles.
Let’s get one thing straight: I’m not your typical psychotherapist.
You won’t find me sitting stiffly in front of you, nodding thoughtfully, and asking, “And how does that make you feel?”
Nope. That’s not my vibe.
You’re more likely to find me barefoot, curled up in my chair with a cup of coffee, talking about the real stuff — the ugly cries, the impossible standards, the moments when you feel like you’re holding everything together with a hair tie and a prayer.
I work with women who seem to be crushing it on the outside — running businesses, raising kids, managing households — but inside, they’re running on fumes.
Meet MacKenzie Bradke, LCSW ~
Your Self-Care Partner
My approach blends EMDR, parts work and a whole lot of radical honesty to help you peel back the layers of perfectionism and finally exhale. Together, we untangle the guilt, the shame and the stories that keep you stuck in over-performance mode so you can start showing up as your real self — messy, imperfect and fully human.
And here’s the thing: I’m not above the work. I live it too.
I know what it feels like to juggle motherhood, career, and the relentless guilt and pressure to “do it all.”
Healing isn’t about becoming some ideal version of yourself - it’s about learning to meet yourself with compassion on the hard days and celebrating the small moments of rest and joy along the way.
You don’t have to earn your rest. You don’t have to prove your worth. And you sure as hell don’t have to do it alone.
At this time, I’m not accepting new clients — but the incredible therapists in our Middle Path Wellness Collective are here and ready to help you find your footing again. Because you deserve care, too.
