About Mikenley

Mikenley Lundy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, and mood concerns like bipolar disorder. He focuses on building practical skills that make daily life easier. Parents and caregivers often look to him for help with family strain and improving communication at home.

He uses straightforward, evidence-based methods to reduce overwhelm and regain emotional balance. Sessions are collaborative - he listens first, then suggests steps you can try between meetings.

Background and approach

He aims to make therapy feel useful from the start, with clear goals and simple strategies. With five years of counseling experience, he draws on trauma-informed work and mood regulation techniques to address past hurt and current triggers.

Much of his work looks at symptoms such as panic, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, and low self-esteem, along with issues like guilt, shame, and feelings of isolation. He also supports people coping with abandonment, control struggles, and finding life purpose. His practice operates through telehealth, allowing sessions by video, phone, chat, or messaging.

That setup is meant to fit work and family schedules and reduce travel stress. He helps people decide which session format will work best for their needs. Clients who meet with him can expect a calm, focused approach that blends practical skills with attentive listening.

Mikenley aims to help people feel more connected to themselves and to the people around them.

Therapeutic approaches and online delivery

He commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors to reduce anxiety and panic. He also uses trauma-informed techniques that focus on safety, grounding, and gradual processing of painful memories to reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods fit best. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs evolve during treatment.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging so therapy can fit into busy family schedules. These options let people connect from home, manage sessions around work or childcare, and keep continuity when travel or relocation happens. The range of formats also makes it easier to use brief check-ins or longer weekly sessions depending on what helps most.
