Maya Andrews

I am a dedicated mental health professional with a background in child welfare, medical social work, substance abuse and mental health treatment. I have a masters degree in Social Work with over 12 years of therapeutic work. I have worked in the field of Social Work for over 25 years to include the following populations: medicaly needy elderly, LGBTQ, at risk youth, and early to middle aged adults with co-occuring disorders. My passion is helping individuals to navigate challenges, heal from difficult experiences, and develop healthier ways of living.

I believe in creating a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients feel seen, heard, and empowered. I consider myself a tour guide as I support clients on their journey to meet their goals.

In our first session, my goal is to get to know you and understand what brings you to therapy. I spend time listening and gathering information about your history, current concerns, and what you hope to gain from the therapeutic process. Together, we explore your goals so we can begin shaping a direction that feels meaningful and achievable for you. I also review what you can expect from me as your therapist-including confidentiality, your rights as a client, and how we will work together. We will discuss the structure of sessions, including times and dates, and any questions you may have about the process. My priority is to create a safe, supportive space where you feel comfortable, informed, and ready to begin your therapeutic journey.
