NOW TAKING NEW CLIENTS

Hi! I’m Maya Martin, and I am currently pursuing dual master’s degrees in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Sport & Exercise Psychology.

I strive to create an environment where individuals feel supported in discovering what is most important to them and defining success in a way that aligns with their own values and goals. I create a space where clients feel heard, supported, safe, and empowered throughout the counseling process. In whatever way you show up, you are welcome and completely accepted with no judgment. You matter!

I work with individuals navigating stress, self-esteem challenges, emotional regulation difficulties, life transitions, relationship concerns, identity development, and burnout.

I have a strong interest in supporting individuals experiencing performance-related pressure across many areas of life, including sports, academics, business and leadership roles, performing arts, and other high-pressure environments where confidence, focus, motivation, and managing expectations can play an important role.

My therapeutic approach is individualized and tailored to each client’s unique needs and experiences; however, I draw from evidence-based approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Therapy, mindfulness-based interventions, and strengths-based approaches.

I also integrate performance psychology techniques such as Psychological Skills Training (PST), imagery and visualization, attentional control and focus strategies, self-talk interventions, stress inoculation techniques, confidence enhancement strategies, goal setting, emotional regulation skills, performance profiling, and arousal regulation techniques. My background as a former collegiate athlete and current coach has shaped how I understand pressure, identity, resilience, and the challenges individuals face when balancing expectations across different areas of life.

Growth does not always mean becoming someone new. Sometimes it means gaining the confidence and tools to become more fully who you already are. You matter!
