Learn More About Maya
Maya Mallory, LMSW, is a therapist at Amira For Her who specializes in working with women, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, and meaningful life transitions. She is especially passionate about supporting women in early adulthood and beyond as they move through pivotal stages such as transitioning out of college, entering the workforce, redefining relationships, and managing the emotional weight that often comes with these shifts.
Maya understands how overwhelming it can feel to balance expectations, uncertainty, and internal pressure while trying to find your footing. Her work is centered on helping clients slow down, process their experiences, and build practical tools to navigate life with greater clarity and confidence.
She also provides compassionate support for women during pregnancy, particularly those experiencing isolation, stress, or emotional overwhelm. Maya creates a nonjudgmental space for individuals navigating complex pregnancy-related decisions, including termination, ensuring clients feel supported, respected, and understood.
In addition, Maya works with adults living with disabilities and older adults facing transitions related to aging, loss, and changing roles. She recognizes the emotional and identity shifts that can come with these experiences and supports clients in adapting with resilience and self-compassion.
Her clinical approach integrates evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), alongside mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and stress management techniques. She also incorporates ADHD-informed strategies and is expanding her work into somatic approaches to support whole-person healing.
Maya earned her Master of Social Work from Columbia University School of Social Work, with additional degrees in Sociology and Food & Nutrition. Her professional experience spans medical, outpatient, and community mental health settings, giving her a well-rounded perspective in supporting diverse client needs.
Her passion for this work is also informed by her lived experience navigating chronic conditions, which deepened her commitment to helping others build resilience, self-awareness, and self-advocacy.
Outside of her work, Maya enjoys singing as a grounding and expressive practice.
