Hi! It’s nice to meet you. I’m glad you’re here. Seeking support can be vulnerable, and reaching out is often one of the hardest steps. People seek therapy for many reasons—whether you're having trouble managing anxiety or depression, exploring your identity, navigating relationship challenges, or working through the impact of difficult past experiences. You’re not alone, and I’m here to help.

My name is Maya. I am a trauma-informed therapist with extensive experience working with survivors of domestic and relationship abuse, sexual abuse and child abuse. I help clients understand the impact of trauma, build coping skills, strengthen relationships, and move toward healing. To support this work, I draw from evidence-based approaches including EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), mindfulness practices, cognitive behavioral therapy, somatic interventions, and attachment-based perspectives. I want clients to gain practical, easy to apply skills from our sessions. In addition to trauma processing, you may learn skills for grounding, managing difficult emotions, communication and more.

I have worked with individuals from a variety of backgrounds, including Queer and Trans clients. I am committed to creating a therapeutic space where people feel respected, affirmed, and welcome. I approach each person with curiosity, compassion, and openness, recognizing that our unique experiences shape how we understand ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us.

I’ve worked in addiction counseling, treatment courts, and child protection—which means I’ve seen a lot, learned a lot, and developed a deep respect for the resilience people carry. I also happen to live with ADHD, so I have a soft spot for brains that zig when others zag. Whether you’re neurotypical or proudly outside-the-box, I love helping people untangle the messiness of life and find what works for them.

You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck or just plain tired of trying to figure everything out on your own. Maybe anxiety keeps you up at night, or depression makes it hard to find the motivation to get through your day. Perhaps ADHD has you juggling a million things at once, but nothing feels like it's getting done. Maybe you're in the midst of a big change; a new role, shifting family dynamics, or health challenges and you're not sure how to navigate it all. I want you to know that you don't have to do it alone. Life doesn't always go as planned, and sometimes it can feel overwhelming to carry. We can find a way forward together.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who provides practical, person-centered telepsychiatry for adolescents and. My practice primarily focuses on psychiatric evaluation and medication management, with supportive therapy and skills-based interventions offered as appropriate during follow-up visits.

My style is warm, practical, evidence-based, and non-judgmental. I work with clients to better understand their symptoms, review treatment options, and develop a medication plan that is thoughtful, individualized, and easy to follow. Common areas of treatment include anxiety, depression, mood disorders, sleep concerns, and life stressors that impact mental health.

I value safety, transparency, and shared decision-making. We’ll discuss medication options, potential benefits, risks, and alternatives in plain language, including when it may make sense to adjust, simplify, or titrate medications. I offer supportive therapy that may be incorporated into medication management visits.

Visits are 100% virtual for your convenience. I offer evening, and weekend availability, and clear communication between sessions for urgent medication-related concerns. I accept insurance through Headway and welcome new clients.
