Hi there, I'm Maelinda!

I am about the soft life. Soft life is a life of self-care where you make yourself a priority. It is a life that emphasizes reduced stress, dispelling false narratives, and good boundaries. You are worthy, and it is your time to breathe.

My focus

I work with individuals and couples on a range of issues, including stress, grief, multicultural issues, anxiety, depression, and trauma (current, previous, intergenerational). I have specialized training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) for trauma treatment.

My approach

I provide individual therapy using an integrative, psycho-spiritual focus that incorporates metaphysical techniques. My open-minded approach encourages empowerment, insight, and practical tools. I am open to all spiritual perspectives and describe my practice as holistic psychotherapy focusing on mind, body, and spirit connection.
