Strategy for Your Path.
Soul for Your Journey.
“I’ve always believed that you can’t have sustainable motion in your life if your mind isn't at peace. My work lives at the intersection of clinical insight and strategic growth, because healing your past is just as important as planning your future.”
Kianna Mattie, LCSW | Founder of Elevate Mind N Motion
At Elevate Mind N Motion, we move beyond the "performance" of success. For high-achievers, particularly within AAPI & POC communities, healing requires more than talk. It requires a specialized lens that honors intergenerational stories through modern tools like EMDR, Brainspotting, CBT, and Attachment work.
I help you resolve the root of perfectionism so your "motion" is fueled by self-trust rather than anxiety. You’ve earned your success. Now it’s time to inhabit it.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and an Arizona native dedicated to helping driven professionals, students, and caretakers reclaim their peace. As an Asian American psychotherapist, I bring lived experience to navigating the model minority myth and systemic stress. My approach blends Strategy and Soul: clinical depth to process trauma and a practical roadmap to navigate life’s transitions.
I practice the balance I teach. I believe our best motion comes from deep connection and physical well-being. To keep my own mind and motion in harmony, I’m often found working out, playing sports, and soaking up quality time with my family, friends, and my two dogs.
Serving the Arizona community online.
You’ve mastered the external world.
Now, let’s find peace in your internal one.
Elevate
We raise the bar on what therapy can be. Beyond managing symptoms, we elevate your awareness to honor your full story. By uncovering the "why" behind perfectionism, we provide a higher perspective so your past no longer dictates your future.
Mind
True peace requires more than just logic. While logic builds success, we use EMDR, Brainspotting, and Attachment work to heal the nervous system. We clear the intergenerational noise, allowing you to reclaim a mind that finally feels like home.
Motion
Healing is meant to move you forward. Using CBT and strategic goal-setting, we ensure your internal growth translates into tangible change. We align your values with your actions so your motion in the world is grounded, purposeful, and sustainable.
