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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Missoula, MT
Searching for therapists in Missoula starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or major life changes. As you compare Missoula therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties, therapy approach, and experience match your needs. A therapist’s bio can help you understand how they work, what types of concerns they support, and what you can expect in a first session.
In a smaller city like Missoula, local therapist availability may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Montana. You may also want to compare appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles closely can help you narrow your search based on communication style, focus areas, and practical fit.
Therapy in Missoula can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated price before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences and are ready to see new patients, so you can review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready. You can also enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage and estimated costs for your specific plan and location.
