(he/him)
My name is Andrew Maihos I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker practicing in Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire. I have been working in human services since 2011 and have been practicing as a counselor since 2016. I have worked in a wide variety of settings including schools, prisons, substance abuse treatment facilities, and mental health centers. I have experience working with all age groups and a wide variety of mental health/substance use disorders. I would describe myself as non-judgmental, easy going, and empathetic. I greatly value accountability, candor, and self-reflection in the treatment process.
It will typically be a blend of getting to know each other, me providing some psychoeducation, and beginning an exploration into a person's world view and their path to therapy.
Showing up everyday ready to listen is my biggest strength. Self awareness is crucial to being an effective therapist. Practicing self-care consistently is what helps us to progress, grow, and achieve within our careers and our personal lives. I live the values, skills, and behaviors that I talk with my clients about and I believe in these strategies and approaches because I have seen them work.
Adults with ADHD looking to work on themselves/find new ways to make progress toward their goals or maybe just figuring out what their goals are. I use a combination of behavioral therapy, psychoeducation on executive functioning, coaching, and mindfulness skills to support clients in making these changes. If you don't have ADHD but are looking for support with issues feel free to send me a message to discuss if we would be a good fit.
