Maya Gauri, LMSW
Psychotherapist
Maya works with young adults, adults, and seniors navigating anxiety, childhood trauma, and depression - grounded in the mind-body connection and a deep respect for each client as the expert of their own experience.
"I believe everyone is the expert of their own experience. Together, we will identify what feels important to you, build on your strengths, and work towards meaningful change."
About Maya
Maya is deeply committed to creating a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore clients' inner and outer worlds. Therapy with her starts from what feels important to you - your goals, your pace, your strengths - and builds toward meaningful change from there.
Grounded in the mind-body connection, she works to understand where psychological and physiological experience intersect, supporting healing on multiple levels. She also holds a deep awareness that each person's experience is shaped by their relationships, community, and the larger systems they move through - and brings that understanding into the work.
Her toolkit is broad: CBT, DBT, and ACT for practical change; psychodynamic and narrative work for the deeper story; somatic and energy psychology and trauma-focused approaches for what lives in the body. Evening and weekend availability makes her a natural fit for busy schedules.
How Maya Works

Psychodynamic & Narrative
The deeper story: where the patterns began, and how to tell it differently.
Somatic & Energy Psychology
Working with what lives in the body, not just what the mind reports.
