Maya Trook CSWA
(they/them)

Hi, my name is Maya and I am a queer, gender nonconforming person in recovery who has worked in mental health and addiction treatment for over 15 years. I bring my own lived experience to supporting others, holding space for people as they approach healing, exploration, and alignment in their lives. I strive to create an environment that is safe and supportive so those I work with can feel seen, heard, and understood. I bring warmth, compassion, and humor and want you to feel a welcoming connection with no judgment. Let’s talk about grief and loss, substance use challenges and harm reduction, gender and sexual identity exploration, anxiety and depression, systems of oppression, internal negative narratives, and supporting others with chronic pain.

I show up to work as my authentic self, looking to create connection. I want to be a guide in identifying your goals and help you work towards them collaboratively. I tailor treatment to each person I work with using aspects of motivational interviewing, mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and harm reduction strategies. I am especially passionate about working with my LGBTQIA2S+ community, folx struggling with addiction, and those navigating grief and loss.

Outside of work, you will find me knitting more hats than I need, reading more books than I can remember, boxing for my whole health, and spending time with my two silly and snuggly dogs.

I offer telehealth appointments.
