About Mika Namir, LCSW
Hello, and welcome. My name is Mika (pronounced Mee-ka). I’m a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist with over 18 years of experience supporting adults through times of change, growth, and healing.
I work with individuals who are navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions — people who want a deeper understanding of themselves and the freedom to live with more ease and authenticity. My approach is collaborative and compassionate; together, we explore the patterns that keep you stuck and build the tools that help you move forward.
Professional Background
I earned my Master of Social Work from Temple University and have continued to expand my knowledge through advanced clinical trainings, including:
- Level 1 training in Internal Family Systems (IFS)
- Advanced Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) practitioner
- Level 1 training in Brainspotting
- Certification in Trial-Based Cognitive Therapy (TBCT)
- Additional study in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Rather than follow one rigid model, I integrate these modalities to fit your individual needs — blending evidence-based methods with a warm, grounded therapeutic relationship.
My Philosophy
I believe therapy is a place where genuine connection can foster real change. It’s a space to slow down, listen inwardly, and develop new ways of relating to yourself and others. You bring your story and goals; I bring curiosity, training, and presence — and together, we create the conditions for meaningful growth.
Outside the Office
When I’m not working with clients, you’ll often find me reading, baking, or spending time with my family, our cat, and our dog.
