Hi there, I'm Mayra!

I’m a Crisis Intervention Specialist, and my role is to provide a calm, supportive space during moments that feel overwhelming. I’m here to help you ground, make sense of what’s happening, and work with you to find the safest and most supportive next steps.

My focus

My ideal clients are individuals who are navigating moments of crisis, overwhelming emotions, or a sense of instability in their lives. Many of the people I work with are dealing with anxiety, trauma reactions, relationship stress, or sudden life changes that make it hard to cope day‑to‑day.

My approach

My approach to treatment is grounded in creating safety, connection, and collaboration. I meet clients exactly where they are, especially during moments of crisis, and work at a pace that feels manageable for them. I focus on helping people regain a sense of stability, understand their emotional experiences and build skills that support resilience.
