Getting to know Maya Nelson

I'm Maya Nelson, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor specializing in trauma recovery, LGBTQ+ affirming care, and crisis support. My practice was built for people who've often been overlooked in traditional mental health spaces: people of color, women, and LGBTQ+ individuals who deserve care that truly sees them. If you're navigating trauma, anxiety, domestic violence, or a major life transition, this is a space to show up fully, without judgment or having to explain your identity first. Using CBT, DBT, IFS, and CPT, we'll move beyond surface-level coping to explore root causes, building real resilience, stronger boundaries, and a steadier sense of self. Many clients notice shifts in self-awareness and emotional relief within the first month, with deeper growth over time. I offer telehealth sessions with sliding scale pricing available. If this sounds like the support you're looking for, I'd love to connect.
