Counseling for Women.
Welcome to Mae, where women’s well-being is my passion.
Being a woman can be both deeply rewarding and incredibly hard. You’re often carrying so much: caring for others, managing endless responsibilities, and trying to hold onto your own identity in the process. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, unseen, or unsure of where you fit in all the noise.
At Mae, you can find a space to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself. Whether you’re navigating perinatal mental health challenges, motherhood, relationship difficulties, trauma, depression, anxiety, or the pressure to do it all, Mae offers a place to feel heard and supported without judgment. Together, we’ll focus on helping you find balance, clarity, and compassion for yourself—because you deserve specialized, evidence based care.
