The Maya Approach to Mental Health
The Maya Approach offers a different path to mental health, recognizing the connection between mind, body, and emotions. My approach is not a one-size-fits-all solution; it's a personalized journey towards emotional balance, connecting with your body, and gaining self-awareness.
Mental health is a journey, not a destination. We start by assessing your current mental state and defining clear, achievable goals. Progress is made through small, deliberate steps, constantly reassessing and adapting to ensure that we are always moving in the right direction. The focus is on gradual improvement and sustainable change.
​
Recognizing that each individual's mental health journey is unique, the Maya Approach is flexible and adaptive. We delve into the challenges you face in your day-to-day life and tailor strategies to meet these specific needs. Whether it's stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, or any other mental health challenge, the approach is customized to provide practical, outside-of-therapy support.
​
The Connection Between Body and Mind
I believe in the use of breath work as a powerful tool for grounding and connecting with the present moment. It serves as a gateway to self-discovery and is particularly effective in managing emotions. Additionally, we focus on enhancing body awareness - feeling and connecting with different parts of the body, guiding thoughts to these areas, and becoming attuned to the sensations and emotions they hold.
​
Physical activity is a vital component of the Maya Approach to mental health. Exercise releases endorphins, natural mood lifters, and facilitates a healthier flow of emotions and thoughts. Movement creates space in the body, allowing for better emotional and energetic circulation. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of nature and fresh air in achieving mental clarity, advocating for outdoor activities as part of my approach.
​
Mindset Matters
I believe that your mindset shapes your reality. A positive mindset is crucial for viewing life optimistically and embracing its opportunities. We work towards nurturing a mindset that supports growth, positivity, and resilience.
​
In summary, the Maya Approach to mental health is about creating a harmonious balance between the physical and the mental, using breath work, body awareness, tailored support, and movement to foster mental well-being. It's a journey that recognizes the uniqueness of you, adapting to your needs, and supporting you through every step of your mental health journey.
