Qualifications & Approach

My name is Mayra Tovar, LCSW, and I am a first-generation Mexican-American psychotherapist dedicated to inclusive, culturally responsive care. My experience includes intimate partner and domestic violence, school social work, inpatient mental health, outpatient medical social work, and case management. I hold training in EMDR, play-based interventions, and immigration psychological evaluations. I use an eclectic approach to therapy, tailoring interventions to each client’s unique needs and goals.

I have witnessed the impact that compassion, grace, and understanding can have in helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My goal is to provide a supportive and collaborative space where clients feel empowered to heal, build resilience, and create lasting change.

My approach is trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and faith-informed, creating a space where clients feel seen, supported, and empowered throughout their healing journey.
