About Mikeya

Mikeya Vega is a licensed clinical social worker who uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage stress, anxiety, and the lingering effects of trauma. She is LCSW and CSW credentialed and works with straightforward goals: reduce symptoms, build daily coping skills, and make life feel more manageable.

Her approach blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered care. That means sessions focus on clear, hands-on strategies and on what matters to the individual. She also incorporates elements from DBT, EFT, and EMDR when they match a person's needs.

Clients often bring concerns such as depression, addiction, grief, low self-esteem, sleep and eating struggles, parenting stress, and relationship or intimacy issues. She also supports people facing career strain, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and impulse-related problems. She helps identify triggers and develop step-by-step plans to reduce their impact on daily life.

Mikeya has six years of practice experience in Georgia. She offers a practical mix of short-term skills work and longer-term therapy depending on what the person wants to accomplish. Sessions can include coaching-style check-ins to keep progress on track.

Her style is direct and supportive. She aims to make therapy fit into busy schedules by offering options that work around evening and weekend commitments. The focus is on clear goals, measurable steps, and building the confidence needed to move forward.

How Mikeya’s approaches work online

CBT helps people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. Online CBT sessions focus on clear goals, practical homework, and simple skill practice that can be used between meetings to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Client-centered therapy centers on what the person needs in each session, using empathic listening and collaboration to set the pace. This approach supports people who want to clarify values, build self-esteem, or make sense of difficult feelings.

Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, brings concrete skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. Online DBT-style work often includes teaching emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication tools.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then recommend a mix of methods to try. That way the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full sessions and guided skill practice, phone can fit a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited, chat works for shorter back-and-forth support, and messaging is handy for brief updates and accountability. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, and other commitments.
