I’m Mika Ross, and I help people get their happy back.
If you're here, you probably have a sense that things could be better but are overwhelmed and not sure how to get there or where to start.
Come on in and poke around. I’ve created some free resources to help you get started moving in a better-feeling direction today. I hope we can help you create a life and relationships that don’t leave you feeling frustrated, resentful, and depleted. Whether we work together online or in person, I hope you'll feel comfortable and understood (I hear, “IT’S LIKE YOU’RE IN MY BRAIN,” and “DO YOU HAVE VIDEO CAMERAS IN OUR HOUSE?” a lot) and definitely not judged. Tears, tantrums, and F-bombs are welcome.
Also, expect to laugh a little.

FREE WORKSHOP!
“We are fighting about stupid stuff…”
No more escalating arguments. No more shutdowns with zero resolution. Sign up today to watch my 30-minute How to Not Get Stuck Workshop that will change the way you argue. We’ll laugh, too (mostly at self-deprecating examples of not-so-great communication from my own marriage and family); it’s not your average boring self-help video, promise.

If I can get there, anyone can…
I am not a morning person, I grew up in a highly dysfunctional family (BOTH of my parents have been married THREE times), I have BIG feelings, physical touch IS NOT my love language, boundaries were discouraged in my family of origin, I can have a sharp tongue, “you complete me” used to be my favorite movie line, I wear mustache filters and Karen wigs on the internet to help people feel less alone in their relationship struggles, I have unreasonably high standards of cleanliness (but only when company is coming), and I came into adulthood wanting to avoid conflict like the plague.
If I can have happy relationships, anyone can. I am also talking about the relationship we have with the person in the mirror (I work with individuals, too).
Great relationships are REAL, IMPERFECT, and MESSY, but in the least relationally damaging and most fun and accepting way possible. Most of us aren’t taught to do feelings, conflict, or mental health well (I sure wasn’t), and I’ve made it my mission to help.
Modern Therapy For Modern Relationships
No relationship has changed more than marriage in recent decades. Negotiating a MODERN MARRIAGE is no small feat. Marriage and parenthood have never looked quite like this, and it’s no wonder many are struggling.
If your main concerns are the relationships in your life (even the not-marriage kind), start here with these free resources. Let’s get you from where you are to where you want to be; you don’t have to keep winging it alone.
P.S. - I’m a little obsessed with relationships. Did you know healthy and balanced relationships are the strongest indicator of life satisfaction? Don’t believe me? Just ask Harvard: [Harvard Study of Adult Development]
