Hi there, I'm Maieka!

I am passionate about working with others to help find emotional balance while navigating through life's demands. When faced with challenges and shortcomings, please know that YOU are not alone. Reaching out for help is an act of courage that is necessary to cultivate lasting change.

My focus

My professional and educational experience has afforded me the opportunity to work with children, teens, parents, and adults of all cultural backgrounds facing a multitude of life stressors, including depression, anxiety, interpersonal relationships, and trauma.

My approach

My approach to therapy is a collaborative effort that helps facilitate cultural sensitivity, personal growth, and empowerment skills through affirmative goal-setting. I believe that self-care is a personal responsibility. The decision to seek therapy is one of many steps taken to achieve emotional wellness.
