Mayra Calatayud-Garcia

My communication style

My communication style is calm, patient, respectful, and nonjudgmental. I work in partnership with my clients and want them to feel comfortable being themselves. I create an environment where my clients feel safe asking questions and expressing themselves. You have full autonomy and decision-making in the process.

My journey to mental healthcare

I decided to become a therapist to support and walk with others facing difficult times, such as grief and trauma. After experiencing a challenging time during the pandemic, I discovered the healing modalities of IFS and Somatic Therapy. These modalities to deepen my understanding of the challenges I was facing.

My goals for you

I collaborate with you to identify what's most important and how you'd like to spend our time together. We can begin with general goals, and as we build trust and rapport, we can develop more specific goals that meet your needs.

Our first session

During our first session together, I will begin with a mutual introduction and check in to see where you are and how you are feeling about connecting with me and starting therapy. This will allow us to get to know each other and to create space for any parts of you that want to share any thoughts, feelings, concerns, questions, etc.
