About

My own indirect and direct relationship with OCD and anxiety has helped me understand people and their families who are also suffering from OCD and co-occurring disorders. I'm a creative and hopeful therapist who takes an individualized approach. Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) has some concrete focuses, but it is important to be unique with each exposure and each member; none of us are exactly the same. My other areas of focus include major depressive disorder, faith-based counseling, and generalized anxiety disorder.

    We have a great fit with my son’s therapist Mayra. I don’t think we could have been better matched. I’m very thankful for her expertise, warm personality, and understanding of teenage boys.

    I had no prior knowledge or OCD or what to do when I found out I was OCD so I was looking a lot into NOCD to answer my questions and finally got a counselor for the problems I was facing by myself. Mayra taught me the ways to deal with my ocd and feel more comfortable in the discomfort that it causes!!! She was always very patient to me saying the same things and helped come up with solutions and exercises that we could do to work on my worries. Highly recommend checking out counseling with NOCD, especially Mayra ◡̈

    I have gained skills in how to respond to intrusive thoughts throughout my day in real-time, and it has been a game changer. Mayra cares deeply and shows so much compassion and encourages me to stick to my values while fiercely dealing with OCD. I feel empowered, supported, and encouraged by her to do hard things while also showing myself compassion.

    My therapist listens to me and hears out my concerns. I feel like I am getting better with my OCD after just 3 sessions. It’s amazing to not be internalizing my OCD after 10 plus years.

    My son was very anxious and nervous about this session, but shortly after logging in he felt at ease and comfortable. My son’s therapist was very sweet, calm and very easy to talk to. We really enjoyed talking to her. We can’t wait to continue therapy and see progress.

    She was extremely patient, thorough and a great listener and and very proficient in her specialized field. I feel confident in her techniques and am looking forward to our future sessions and my future in general which she has helped become more clear to me now that she has showed me the light at the end of the tunnel of this debilitating illness.

    Mayra was both professional and understanding. She did not make me feel like I was case study (as many of my therapists have) or someone that was beyond help. I got the feeling that she has had a lot of experience and she was very knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable talking about difficult things and experiences.

    I have seen psychiatrists and therapists on and off since I was a teenager (I’m now 50) and this is the FIRST time I have ever REALLY been “understood”. I have felt heard before, but never understood! I feel excited about continuing therapy.
