Maya Carroll,
LMHCA
Pronouns: she/her
The heart of my work is empathy, authenticity, and empowerment. Being a part of 2SLGBTQIA+ and Neurodivergent communities means learning to survive inside systems and families that might demand you shrink or hide who you truly are. Many of our emotional and behavioral patterns began as protective strategies for our daily lives. They are the ways we navigate marginalization, identity, conflict, and attachment wounds. While those strategies once kept you safe, they don’t always serve the life, relationships, or goals you want today.
My approach...
In our work together, we’ll move at a pace that actually feels safe and grounding for you. I draw from Attachment, Narrative, and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to create a collaborative space where we can slow down and look at your whole story. We’ll investigate the patterns and interactions you’ve carried to figure out what you need to feel supported and empowered today.
Our mental health doesn’t exist in a vacuum, it’s deeply tied to the systems, families, and cultures around us. As a trans woman raised in a religious conservative family, I know firsthand what it takes to process religious trauma, navigate spiritual harm, and untangle family-of-origin wounds. I am deeply committed to holding a genuinely affirming space for 2SLGBTQIA+,
BIPOC, neurodivergent folks, or anyone working to reclaim themselves from invalidating environments.
Professional training & memberships...
I earned my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grand Canyon University and my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Montana State University. Before joining Protea Wellness, I completed my counseling internship at Lahai Health, supporting clients through anxiety, depression, major life transitions, and complex trauma.
