Hi, I’m Andrés and if you’re reading this, you might be the one everyone counts on, the one who gets it done, but lately... it’s been feeling like too much. Maybe sleep is broken, work feels relentless, or you snap at people you love and don’t know why. I work with high-achieving, deeply committed people who are tired of carrying the weight alone. Therapy with me is real, practical, and focused we get to the root of things so you can finally exhale, feel lighter, and show up how you want to at work, at home, and for yourself.

Thanks for taking the time to read my profile. I'm a short-term, solution-oriented therapist that focuses on identifying and relieving on mild-to-moderate mental health symptoms, likely related to newer onset life stressors: family and relationship issues, school and work, grief and loss, medical diagnoses, etc. Though I would love to serve all that are seeking mental health therapy, it's important that I remain within my scope of competence and scope of practice. Therefore, I'm ethically unable to accept clients seeking long-term/maintenance care or specialized interventions (e.g., trauma, OCD, etc.). My approach to therapy tends to resonate best with clients who are moderately motivated to truly seek out solutions to their issues and symptoms, and are willing to do the work- both in session, and out- to achieve the results desired. We collaborate to identify the issues, and put in the actual work to make change for resolution. Though I am a clinician that utilizes evidence-based practices and interventions, I would definitely say I'm also a bit of a life coach!

That can feel unfair, and it is.

Hello, I’m Yolande Maxius, a licensed clinical social worker with expertise in various therapy techniques, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). If you’re struggling with mental health issues, I’m here to offer my assistance and support. Navigating through life’s challenges can be overwhelming, and it’s important to remember that seeking help is a sign of strength. As a trained professional, I provide a safe and compassionate space for individuals to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. With EMDR, I utilize a specialized approach that can be highly effective in addressing past traumas, anxiety, phobias, and other mental health concerns. EMDR therapy helps to reprocess distressing memories and experiences, allowing for healing and positive change. By accessing the brain’s natural ability to heal, we can work together to promote resilience and foster emotional well-being. Whether you’re struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, or the aftermath of a traumatic event, I am here to support you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery. My goal is to provide a supportive and non-judgmental environment where you can explore your emotions, gain insight, and develop effective coping strategies.

I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin in 2011 with my Masters in Social Work and have since worked in a variety of settings and with different populations. Have you ever wished, "I wish I was more like (fill the blank)", or thought, "I am not good enough." We are born with a certain temperament and into a certain situation but there are things we can control. My favorite part of my job is helping people see the best parts of themselves and using their strengths to achieve their goals.
