About Maranda

Hello, my name is Maranda. I am a Clinical Mental Health Counseling intern passionate about helping individuals find healing, clarity, and resilience through life’s challenges. 


My therapeutic approach is grounded in psychodynamic theory, attachment-based theory, and mindfulness practices. I strive to offer a collaborative, non-judgmental space where growth can unfold. I work with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and major life transitions, helping them gain insight, build coping skills, and move toward lasting change. I value creating a supportive and inclusive space for all individuals and deeply respect the unique stories and cultural backgrounds each person brings to therapy. Whether you’re seeking healing, insight, or simply someone to walk alongside you, I’m here to support your journey.


I specialize in trauma-informed care, grief and loss, and faith or spirituality integration. I work with children and individuals, supporting emotional regulation, identity development, and self-awareness. My approach blends psychodynamic and attachment theory to explore root causes while offering practical tools for everyday life.
