Michael Maffei
Counselor/Therapist, LSW
I understand that sharing your vulnerabilities and opening up about your story can be difficult, but I believe everyone’s story deserves to be heard. I work best with clients who are ready to face these challenges, even if they’re unsure where to start. My role is to walk alongside you on your healing journey, offering support as we work toward a deeper understanding of your circumstances. Together, we’ll strive for personal growth, helping you create a more meaningful and balanced life.
I offer a safe, empathetic space where you can feel truly heard and supported. Specializing in anxiety, depression, and trauma, I tailor personalized treatment plans that focus on emotional stability and building on the resilience you already possess. Using evidence-based approaches, I ensure our work aligns with your personal values and unique needs. I also have a passion for working with children and teens who are navigating the complexities of parental divorce, helping them process their emotions and find healthy ways to manage change.
It’s a privilege to hear your story and walk with you on this journey. If you’re facing mental health challenges, I empathize with the weight they carry. When you’re ready to take the next step, I invite you to reach out, and together we’ll work toward a life where you’re not just surviving but thriving.

PSYCHe, PLLC
Psychologist, PhD, DBT-LBC™, LPC, PsyD, MSW, Marriage and Family Counselor, LCSW
At PSYCHē, we pair clients with their perfect therapist. PSYCHē is a private network of expert therapists specializing in hand-selecting top psychologists and counselors across multiple states. Our network includes a variety of therapists in multiple states so we can provide our clients with solid, research-based therapies that work. We offer Individual Therapy, Couples Therapy, Family Therapy, DBT and RO-DBT Groups, and Child & Adolescent Therapy.
Looking for a therapist but not sure where to start? That's where we come in. Our goal is simple: We want to connect you with your perfect therapist. The first step is the Consultation. You'll meet online with an expert PSYCHē clinician who knows the right questions to ask in order to determine what kind of therapist will be the best fit for you. After a thorough review of your history, goals, and what you’re looking for (and NOT looking for!) we go to work getting you matched and scheduled with someone who can help. Why wait? Leave the searching to us.
Our Therapy Services Specialists (TSS) know therapy and they know therapists. The Consultation provides the opportunity to share all of your concerns, goals, desires, and what you're looking for (and NOT looking for!) with our experts, allowing them to handle the rest.
After presenting your case to our in house experts, the TSS will meet with you a 2nd time to share expert recommendations, answer questions, and connect you with a clinician. We aren’t satisfied until you understand the WHY.
The next step is to start! You will be connected to your clinician and introduced to the Clinical Concierge who will serve as your guide and supporter throughout treatment. If it doesn’t work out or doesn't feel quite like the right fit, no problem. We’ll make it right. Let us do the work for you. Schedule a Consultation today.
We have immediate openings with the top therapists in the nation available in multiple states.

Hello All! Thank you for visiting my profile
“People can cry much easier than they can change.” -James Baldwin.
Change can be hard, brutal, and ugly, especially when trying to go it alone. Change is something that is easier said than done. We all get to various points in our lives when we must make that change in order to evolve from the feelings and/or situations that we need to transition from.
My goal is to support you while navigating those changes in your life in a safe and nurturing therapeutic relationship where you can gain the skills needed to reach your mental wellness goals. I believe that YOU are the expert in your life. I am simply here to offer insight and to help guide you to the answers that reside within.
I am an educator, a therapist, and a certified Parent Coach with a specialization in children and families. I have over 20 years of experience working in a variety of settings with a diverse mix of needs which include, speaking fluent teen lol (adolescent therapy), parenting skills, helping separated couples co-parent, family systems, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and defiant behaviors.
We all have challenges that we need to get through. My approach is compassionate, non-judgmental, open, and honest. I believe that the best work is done in a trusting and nurturing relationship. I want to support your ability to grow, find your voice, and build confidence so that you are equipped to face your challenges with the tools needed for success.
Contact me for a complimentary consultation to discuss your goals and how we can work on achieving them together.

Patricia Valencia
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC
I work with adults who want to change their lives and get to the root of what makes them think, feel, and react in ways that keep them stuck. They desire to lessen stress, reduce anxiety, and improve their relationships. We work together to understand and minimize their negative responses to triggers. We explore the events, thoughts, and feelings that led to painful relationships and low self-esteem. We work together to develop realistic individualized strategies to minimize unhealthy patterns that prevent joy and peace in their lives. We collaborate to implement realistic changes that improve their quality of life.
