I’m Maryam Khodaeikalaki, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor Therapist (LPCC) with over a decade of experience in helping individuals, couples and families navigate life’s challenges. My journey in the field of psychotherapy began with a deep passion for understanding the human mind and a commitment to supporting others in their pursuit of balance, joy, and personal growth.

I believe that therapy is about change and growth. My mission as a therapist is to guide you in creating a life that feels balanced, joyful, and fulfilling.

I am dedicated to helping my clients build a strong, healthy, and peaceful self, no matter what challenges they may be facing. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, or the stress of daily life, I am here to support you with compassion and expertise.

My practice is deeply rooted in the principles of empathy, mindfulness, and collaboration. I understand that every individual’s story is unique, and I am committed to creating a safe, welcoming environment where you can explore your emotions and challenges at your own pace.

In our sessions, I strive to create a safe and nurturing environment where you can explore your thoughts and emotions without judgment. My approach is conversational yet insightful, using everyday language to delve into complex emotional and psychological issues. I encourage you to be curious about your inner world and to embrace the process of change with courage and resilience.

At the heart of my practice is a deep respect for each client’s unique journey. I am here not just as a therapist, but as a compassionate companion on your path to wellness. Together, we will work to uncover your strengths, build new coping skills, and create a life that reflects your true self.

I earned my degree in Human Relations/Counseling from the University of Oklahoma in 2010, and I have since gained extensive experience in various therapeutic settings. I am licensed to practice in California, Virginia, Oklahoma and Missouri, and I am fluent in both English and Persian/Farsi. My diverse background allows me to connect with clients from different walks of life and provide culturally sensitive care.

In addition to my work as a psychotherapist, I specialize in treating drug and alcohol addiction and hold several certifications that enhance my ability to support clients on their path to recovery. I am also a member of the American Psychological Association, which keeps me connected to the latest research and developments in the field.
