About Adam

Adam MacKenzie is a licensed psychologist practicing in North Dakota. He uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside other practical approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and low self-esteem. He aims to make sessions straightforward and supportive so people can talk about hard things without judgment.

He brings six years of psychotherapy experience to sessions and one year of licensed practice in North Dakota. He focuses on helping people cope with life changes and build motivation and confidence.

Background and approach

Conversations are paced to meet each person's comfort level and goals. In the room he listens for patterns that keep people stuck - like avoidance, shame, or harsh self-talk - and helps people notice different options. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to address unhelpful thinking and on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas to clarify values and small steps forward.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy is part of his approach when emotions are central to a struggle. That work centers on identifying feelings and making more helpful emotional responses possible. Motivational Interviewing is used when people want to build momentum for change.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. He works with issues such as attachment concerns, commitment and control issues, guilt and shame, isolation, life purpose, men’s concerns, veteran and armed forces issues, personality disorder-related struggles, and social anxiety. The aim is practical change that fits daily life.

Using Emotion and Evidence in Online Sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and understand strong feelings. It focuses on what emotions are showing and how shifting emotional responses can change patterns. This approach can be helpful for grief, attachment concerns, shame, and relationship-related distress.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy are also used. ACT helps clarify personal values and supports small actions that match those values. CBT looks at thinking patterns and practical skills to reduce worry and improve mood. Together these approaches give options for both feeling-focused and skills-focused work depending on the issue.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, comfort level, and daily life. Sessions may shift over time as needs change and progress is made.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier during a busy day. Live chat or messaging suits shorter check-ins, journaling-style work, or people who prefer typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and travel schedules while keeping the focus on clear, consistent therapeutic work.
