About Mycah
Mycah Whiting is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 13 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress and anxiety and supports those navigating grief, addictions, and changes in relationships. Her style is warm and direct, aimed at helping people make clear, practical steps forward.
She uses a person-centered approach, so sessions start with what matters most to each individual. Mycah listens for strengths and goals, then helps people set short-term steps they can try between sessions.
Background and approach
She also draws on cognitive-behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and on dialectical behavior ideas to build emotional skills. Clients often bring concerns such as depression, trauma and abuse, body image and eating issues, or struggles with impulse control and substance use. Mycah also works with people dealing with family of origin problems, codependency, communication challenges, and life-purpose questions.
She frames these topics in everyday terms and focuses on what people can do now to feel steadier. Sessions can include practical skills coaching, goal setting, and reflective conversation. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants to make a big change, like reducing substance use or shifting unhealthy patterns.
The emphasis is on collaboration - the person sets the goals and Mycah helps map the steps. Work is offered in English and sessions are provided by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to therapist availability.
Approaches for online work and practical coping skills
Mycah uses client-centered therapy, which means she starts from each person's goals and priorities and shapes sessions around what matters most to them. This approach helps people feel heard and keeps the work focused on day-to-day changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is also used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and practice different ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and depression.She combines these methods with elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills when feelings become overwhelming. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit best given their goals, life circumstances, and preferences. That decision is revisited as needs change so the plan evolves over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer sessions that include skill practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in fits the schedule. Live chat and text-based messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when someone prefers written communication. These options aim to make therapy flexible and easier to fit into a busy life.
