Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 11 mi away • Shavano Park, TX


I have been assisting individuals, couples, and families since the 80's. I consider myself a lifelong learner who blends evidence-based practice with wit and wisdom. I am licensed in Texas as a clinical social worker and chemical dependency counselor. I earned my master's degree from The University of Kansas in '96. My focus was administration and community mental health. I completed the MSW clinical practicum and seminar so that I can attest to using both sides of my brain. In my opinion, every problem has a solution. It would be my honor to assist you.

Maya Braden

Maya Braden

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 14 mi away • Helotes, TX


I’m an LPC based in San Antonio, Texas. I have a master’s in clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in military families and culture. I’m also a Certified DBT Therapist and a member of the ACA.

I’ve worked in mental health since 2018, starting in a psychiatric hospital where I gained broad experience with a wide range of diagnoses and acute care needs.

That foundation, combined with my private practice work, has shaped a grounded, trauma-informed, and practical style to provide you with a therapy experience that is unique to your needs.

I work with adolescents (13 and up) and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, chronic illness, and neurodivergence.
