Welcome!
Hi, I’m Maya! I’m a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, and I specialize in anxiety therapy and burnout recovery for high-performing adults. Using a combination of somatic therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), I help clients manage the physical and emotional symptoms of stress, perfectionism, and chronic anxiety, so they can feel more grounded, confident, and balanced in both their personal and professional lives.
I offer in-person therapy in Massachusetts and online therapy for clients in Florida and South Carolina. I also work with therapists and counselors in private practice, helping them navigate clinical burnout, manage stress, and find healthier work-life balance.
Why choose to work with me?
Talking through your challenges can be helpful, but sometimes it’s not enough. If you’re struggling with anxiety, burnout, or self-worth issues, traditional talk therapy may leave you feeling stuck or disconnected from your body’s needs.
That’s where somatic therapy comes in. Your body holds the key to healing, but over time, we often forget how to truly listen to it. I’ll help you reconnect with the wisdom your body offers, using proven somatic techniques and CBT to release stress, emotional tension, and past trauma.
Together, we’ll create a therapeutic experience that’s more than just talk—it’s a holistic approach to help you feel more grounded, confident, and at ease in your life and relationships.
“You can’t stop the waves but you can learn to surf.”
— Jon Kabat Zinn
My Story
I have worked for over 10 years as a therapist and clinical supervisor in various settings, including community mental health centers, community-based acute treatment centers, outpatient day programs, as well as public, therapeutic, and residential schools. Not too far into my professional career, I started to face my own challenges with anxiety and burnout.
Through engaging in somatic practices, I discovered the profound ways in which connecting with my body improved my overall well-being and fostered a deeper understanding of myself.
In my private practice, I have found my happy place by implementing a healthy work/life balance, allowing me to show up consistently and authentically for my clients, friends, and family.
