Mayra Diaz

Mayra Diaz is a compassionate and dedicated Marriage & Family Therapist (MS, LMFT) who specializes in helping adults navigate the complexities of anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). She understands the overwhelming nature of anxiety, which can feel sickening and exhausting, and recognizes that many individuals struggling with these issues often feel as though nothing works for them. With a rich understanding of what happens in the body during anxious moments, Mayra equips her clients with effective coping tools to halt spiraling thoughts, allowing them to reclaim their lives and engage in activities they cherish.

Mayra’s therapeutic practice is particularly sensitive to the needs of the BIPOC community, where the conversation around emotions has often been stifled. Many individuals from these backgrounds may feel ill-equipped to cope with their feelings after past therapeutic experiences that left them feeling misunderstood. As a person of color herself, Mayra embodies the empathetic connection that fosters trust and comfort, making it easier for clients to open up. She encourages personal accountability while providing the support needed to confront life’s challenges, guiding clients toward increased self-confidence and compassion. For those struggling with anxiety, OCD, or seeking culturally sensitive therapy, Mayra is available for consultations and invites you to explore her new book, The Panic Attack Relief Workbook.
