"...rooted in the belief that you are inherently deserving of care and a sense of belonging."

Hi, I'm glad you are here to find out more about me. My name is Maverick and I offer individual therapy for adolescents and adults, addressing a range of challenges including self-esteem, identity, peer dynamics, life transitions, addictions, anxiety, depression, trauma, and adversity. In our work together I would employ an array of therapeutic methods and modalities, all within a person-centered, client-driven framework. I am trained in cognitive-based therapies, behavioral-based therapies, art therapy (SoulCollage®), motivational enhancement therapy, and harm reduction, and am currently training in ecotherapy.
 
As an outdoors enthusiast, I am driven to intertwine the healing power of nature and ecological practices with individual and group well-being. My approach to building a therapeutic alliance with you is rooted in the belief that you are inherently deserving of care and a sense of belonging. Throughout our time together, my objective is to co-create a space with you where you can embark on a voyage of self-discovery, allowing insights to blossom.
 
My philosophy of care is influenced by the guiding principles of ecological systems theory, social-learning theory, somatics, phenomenology, and symbolic interactionism. By embracing these concepts, I aspire to collaborate with you in constructing meaning and significance from your lived
experiences, fostering resilience, growth, and lasting positive change.
 
I hold a graduate degree from Tulane University’s School of Social Work and have supplemented my education with a Certificate in Disaster and collective Trauma. My background encompasses a diverse array of experiences, including working with adults, youth, and families in a variety of educational and
community settings. Grounded in culturally responsive care, self-determination, and harm reduction, I partner with clients to develop skills to address life’s challenges, while remembering to make time for celebration and fun along the way.
