Maya's Background
I am passionate about supporting people of all ages to gain independence, confidence and overall well-being through engagement in meaningful activities. I believe that a client and family-centered approach is important to building a solid therapeutic relationship that fosters trust and creates successes.
As an occupational therapist, I have experience working in acute care with a range of populations and conditions including neurology, orthopedics, cognitive impairment, geriatrics and general medicine. I also have experience supporting families and children in preschools, clinics, the home, and more through virtual therapy. Currently, I work in private practice, supporting both adults and children through virtual therapy.
My passion for finding creative solutions to support people’s well-being has led me to explore the intersection of occupational therapy and holistic practices. I am passionate about learning how to implement integrative & complementary health practices such as mindfulness, breathwork, and yoga to promote healing and well-being.
When I am not working, I enjoy snowboarding, playing music, travelling, volunteering with animals, and spending time with my family.
