Hi, I’m Mariah.

I believe healing begins in a space where you feel truly understood, supported, and safe to show up exactly as you are. As a Registered Clinical Social Worker Intern, my goal is to create a warm, collaborative environment where we can explore what’s weighing on you and identify the strengths you already carry. I strive to build meaningful therapeutic relationships grounded in trust, compassion, and authenticity.

I am passionate about working with individuals navigating anxiety disorders, including OCD and agoraphobia; depression; personality disorders; trauma-related concerns; and major life transitions. I also support individuals adjusting to medical diagnoses and caregivers managing high levels of stress. I am interested in working with both children and couples, and I value helping families and partners strengthen communication, understanding, and emotional connection.

My approach is personalized and integrative, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-informed care, psychodynamic therapy, strengths-based practices, and motivational interviewing. I believe therapy should feel both supportive and empowering. Together, we work to better understand patterns, build practical coping tools, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I earned my Bachelor of Science in Psychology and advanced clinical practices from Arizona State University and my Master of Clinical Social Work at Columbia University. My clinical background includes oncology social work, behavioral health coaching, and crisis intervention, which has shaped my ability to remain grounded and present even in complex or high-emotion situations.

I would be honored to walk alongside you as you move toward healing, resilience, and greater self-understanding.
