Mayra Licano

¡Hola! Finding your balance doesn't happen all at once, it happens paso a paso (step by step). As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8+ years of experience, my heart’s work has always been to provide culturally centered, evidence-based care for those navigating the complexities of early parenthood, identity transitions, anxiety, and depression.

My goal is to provide a warm, collaborative space where you feel truly heard and empowered. Together, we will work to reduce the overwhelm so you can find more balance and joy in your everyday life.

As your therapist, my approach is person-centered, focusing on your unique strengths and abilities to help you grow and heal. I bring a modern, millennial therapist style to our sessions. This means our time together is a down-to-earth, human experience rather than a rigid, traditional therapy space. Sometimes, all it takes is a fresh perspective, deeper self-awareness, or having someone empower you to make the choices that are best for your life.

We will start with a brief introductory session to chat and make sure we feel like a great fit for each other. You can expect our sessions to have a warm, laid-back feel. It is a relaxed space where you can kick off your shoes, grab a cafecito, and speak completely freely. I combine a laid-back atmosphere with evidence-based methods that bring real change. For our first session, our main goal is to untangle the overwhelm and map out a practical path forward together. My hope is that you leave feeling lighter, deeply understood, and ready to navigate life!
