About Maya

Maya Johnson is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with six years of clinical experience based in Indiana. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, career uncertainty, relationship strain, and low self-esteem. Maya also addresses related concerns such as attachment and abandonment issues, body image, codependency, communication challenges, and feelings of isolation.

Her approach mixes expressive methods with practical techniques. She uses expressive arts, sand tray work, and exposure and response prevention where appropriate. Sessions focus on concrete skills for managing symptoms, clarifying values, and making decisions about next steps in work and relationships.

Maya offers telehealth appointments and sees individuals by scheduled session. She has provided services to people in Tennessee, Michigan, and Indiana. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.

She helps people who are coping with transitions like college, career change, or recovery from domestic violence. In sessions she may guide clients through exercises, creative work, and step-by-step exposure tasks to reduce avoidance and build confidence. The emphasis is on clear, doable strategies that fit a person’s daily life.

To begin, prospective clients use a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Costs vary by location and service uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches used in remote sessions

Maya uses expressive arts and sand tray work to help people access feelings and explore life themes in a nonverbal way. These methods can help when words feel stuck and when a person wants to see patterns play out in a tangible form.

She also uses exposure and response prevention, a step-by-step method that reduces avoidance by gradually facing feared situations. This technique is often used for anxiety and for repetitive avoidance patterns that block progress in work or relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Maya will discuss options and try methods that fit a client's goals and comfort level. That collaborative process helps prioritize what to try first and when to adjust methods based on what is helpful.

Her practice offers telehealth appointments for individual sessions. Because formats were not fully specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking. Remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow for flexible check-ins during work breaks or between other commitments.
