Hi there, I'm Mayra!

I'm an LCSW who believes that every person deserves to feel heard, understood, and empowered. My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to your unique needs, whether you're working through anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, parenting, or major life transitions.

My focus

I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress. I have a special passion for supporting first-generation adults, single parents, and those navigating the loss of a loved one, providing a compassionate, culturally responsive, and trauma-informed space for healing and growth.

My approach

I provide a warm, collaborative, and evidence-based approach to therapy tailored to your unique needs. Using CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care, I help clients build coping skills, increase self-awareness, and create meaningful, lasting change in a supportive, judgement-free environment.
