Mariana Mackinnon, LCSW

Mariana Mackinnon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, compassion fatigue, and life changes. She also supports concerns such as intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, career questions, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.

Mariana grew up bilingual in a Latino household and spent time living and working in Madrid, Spain. Those experiences shape how she understands cultural and identity questions. She pays attention to how cultural background and language affect daily pressures and relationships.

In sessions she focuses on concrete tools and clear steps. She uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing to address symptoms and day-to-day functioning. The work often includes skills practice, values clarification, and repeated small steps toward manageable changes.

She helps people navigate transitions such as divorce, caregiving strain, chronic illness, or job changes. Mariana also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, dissociation, body image, and alternative-sex-culture topics like BDSM and kink. Her style emphasizes cultural awareness and practical problem solving.
