About Mikeya
Mikeya Vega, LCSW, offers a practical, body-aware approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, and trauma. She uses somatic tools alongside talk therapy to help clients notice how feelings show up in the body. Mikeya aims to make change feel steady and doable rather than overwhelming.
She works with common life struggles such as depression, grief, self-esteem, anger, and career stress. She also supports issues tied to intimacy, parenting strain, sleep and eating concerns, and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
Her background includes six years of clinical practice in Georgia as a licensed clinical social worker, LCSW. She also holds CSW status. Mikeya blends client-centered listening with practical skills from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy.
She draws on emotionally-focused strategies to help people improve communication and process difficult feelings. Somatic methods are used to reconnect sensations and emotions so clients can feel more grounded. Sessions can include coaching-style goal-setting and habit work for people who want active steps toward change.
She incorporates trauma-focused tools when past events continue to affect daily life. The focus is on small, clear steps that fit into a busy schedule. Mikeya offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different routines.
Her approach aims to help people reduce reactivity, build coping skills, and increase comfort in everyday life.
Approaches you can try online
Somatic work helps people notice where stress and emotions live in the body. It uses attention to breath, movement, and sensation to reduce overwhelm and build grounding, which can help with anxiety, trauma responses, and stress.Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and meeting the person where they are. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so clients can find their own solutions and make choices that fit their life.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions. It teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and develop healthier habits for mood, sleep, and daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust as work progresses. Together they decide which tools feel most useful for daily life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging to make therapy fit busy schedules. These formats allow for consistent check-ins, skills practice between sessions, and flexible timing for evenings or weekends. Many people find the options make it easier to build steady progress without long commutes.
