Welcome, I’m Maryah
I am a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) in the state of New Mexico with over a decade of counseling experience and over 18 years experience in the social services field. I hold a dual masters degree from New Mexico Highlands University in Clinical Counseling and Vocational Rehabilitation Counseling with a specialization in Vocational Evaluation. Prior to completing my graduate degree I obtained a dual bachelors degree in Sociology and Women Studies from the University of New Mexico.
I believe we hold within ourselves the power and strength to live the life we desire. Through self-introspection you will begin to understand how your life choices are impacting your wellbeing and happiness. I will encourage you to take responsibility for your choices, empower you to make choices that align with your true authentic self, and in turn create a life that is worth living. I have experience helping people work through the challenges of life, including self-esteem, relationship issues, women's issues, conflict resolutions, life transitions, and anger management.
I provide online therapy sessions for individuals and couples. I am eclectic in my approach, utilizing different modalities to meet your unique needs. These modalities may include Existential therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and the Gottman Method.
You can expect compassion, respect, and empathy during our time together. I look forward to supporting and guiding you on your journey to clarity, inner peace, and improved mental health.
Begin your journey…
Hummingbirds are often associated with healing, wisdom, and endurance. The tiny yet formidable hummingbird embarks on an epic journey of faith from South and Central America to North America every spring. The hummingbird is a solitary migrant with impeccable navigation skills that courageously travels thousands of miles alone nourishing itself on the sweet nectar of flowers. Like the hummingbird you have begun a courageous journey that will lead you to the sweet nectars of life. Embracing the spirit of the hummingbird which encompasses perseverance, wisdom, and courage you will overcome the challenges of life.
“Keep your face always toward the sun and the shadows will fall behind you.”

What People Are Saying
“One of the best councilors we’ve had after going through so many to find the right one. She’s to the point and open and honest with us. She’s not biased in anyway and very accommodating to our busy lives.”

“My husband and I didn’t know what to expect with couple’s counseling but we knew we needed help with communication as a newly married couple. We are so grateful we were paired with Maryah as she was a perfect fit for our personalities and lifestyle. She did not sugar coat but at the same time was very respectful and understanding. It never felt like she was taking sides and she asked questions that really got us thinking and trying to see from the other person’s point of view. We are now so confident in our ability to work through our issues and look forward to growing together in our marriage.”
