Mikayla Becker is a Mental Health Counselor and Behavioral Health Consultant (BHC) in CCPs Integrated Behavioral Health practice. BHCs at Community Care Physicians are licensed mental health providers and social workers. Many are embedded within our practices working side by side with your doctor and healthcare team in delivering you the best “whole person” healthcare possible. Mikayla is a member of the New York Mental Health Counseling Association.

Mikayla’s background includes individual counseling and case management. Her experience in counseling has included treating various conditions, including grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, stress management, disordered eating, ADHD, and academic stress. Her case management experience focused on individuals suffering from serious mental and physical illness. Additional experience includes acting as the Program Director of a Batterer’s Intervention Program, where she worked with men who have domestic violence charges, and at the Russell Sage College Counseling Center with college students on campus.

Mikayla decided to pursue behavioral health for many reasons. One was seeing how mental health struggles impacted her loved ones and how behavioral health inventions changed their lives. Another was working with clients in case management and seeing how necessary mental health treatment is. She loves seeing the change patients can make through working together, helping them to understand themselves better and improving their health and overall quality of life.

Outside work, Mikayla has participated in the Out of the Darkness Suicide Prevention Walk and loves to hike, read, and spend time with her labradoodle, Reba! She also enjoys spending time in the gym and in nature. For self-care, Mikayla likes to be with friends or read a great book.
