I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in NY & ID. I have 27 yrs of experience working with clients of all ages, religions, sexual orientations, economic levels, & races with issues of domestic violence, maternal mental/physical health, foster care, marital, work, relationship, & health stress.

I strive to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and respected from the very first session. Building trust is important to me, and I understand that starting therapy can feel like a big step.

I bring over eight years of experience working in diverse settings, including crisis intervention, child welfare, and substance use treatment. This has allowed me to support individuals and families through a wide range of challenges with compassion and flexibility.

My approach is collaborative—I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all method. We will work together to identify your goals and find strategies that feel right for you. I also value cultural sensitivity and take the time to understand your background, identity, and lived experiences as part of the healing process.

Hi, I’m Maya, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience working with adults and children from diverse backgrounds. Throughout my career, I’ve supported individuals navigating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and trauma—often during times when they felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward.

I’m especially passionate about working with women and individuals facing grief, maternal mental health challenges, infertility, relationship stress, and major life transitions. My work is rooted in helping people reconnect with their sense of autonomy, voice, and inner strength. I believe meaningful change begins when you feel truly heard and supported.

Sometimes it can be helpful to talk through issues with someone giving you their undivided attention. It can also be helpful to explore other forms of creative expression when talking isn't enough. I offer these avenues for growth to my clients. Clients I work with often discuss relationship issues, stress related to school or work, feelings of depression and anxiety, and substance abuse and addiction issues.

I have over 7 years of experience working with adolescents, most of whom have experienced childhood trauma. I also have over a decade of experience working with people in the alcoholism and addiction recovery community. Other specialties include men's issues, 12 step recovery, relationship issues, work/life stress, anxiety, and depression.

Change in the world has been constant lately. It can be hard to take a moment and focus on how things can improve in your life. Reaching out for help can be a life-changing first step.

I'm a licensed mental health clinician with over two decades of experience in the field. Throughout my career, I've seen firsthand that clinical expertise alone isn't what creates real change — it's the combination of evidence-based care and genuine compassion that moves the needle. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, and depression, and I approach every client as an individual whose needs, history, and goals shape the way we work together. My commitment is to provide care that is both rigorous and deeply human.

I am a collaborative and interactive therapist that utilizes a variety of psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, EFT, and solution-focused techniques based on the individual client, their wants, needs and goals.
