More about Maya

  • 16 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMFT

My ideal client is motivated for change but unsure where to start. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, and relationship stress who want to feel more grounded, connected, and understood. They value space to think out loud and are open to new strategies. While I primarily work with individuals, I also support couples and parents seeking healthier patterns. My approach draws from mindfulness, CBT, DBT, and systemic therapy.
