Ivy Mairura, LMHC
Licensed Mental Health Counselor

 

 

I have a passion for helping people overcome life’s challenges and attain their objectives. In addition to being a Licensed Counselor, I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Doctorate in Biblical Counseling. I see value the uniqueness of each client’s story and devote time to resonating with the struggles of a client, igniting positive transformations, and leading them toward actions that will improve their lives. My approach is all about looking ahead and focusing on the possibilities that lie ahead rather than getting overwhelmed by life’s challenges.

I am an adept counselor who provides clients with a secure and nurturing space to navigate through the complexities of life. My goal is to guide individuals towards recognizing their strengths and using them to craft their own solutions. It's incredibly rewarding to see clients light up as they realize the potential they hold within themselves.

What really drives me is the belief that positive change is not only possible but within reach for everyone. I work to correct misconceptions about receiving mental health care that some people have and help them get access to the assistance they require for their wellbeing.

If you're looking for a partner in your wellness journey, I'm here to offer guidance, support, and unwavering belief in your ability to thrive. Let's work together to create the transformation you want to see in your life.

Some of the approaches Ivy uses include, but are not limited to, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Approach and Motivational Interviewing. She understands that each client’s experience will be different, therefore treatment is customized to the individual’s needs. Ivy can help you overcome tough areas such as:

Depression, Anxiety, Athletic performance related stress/anxiety, Parenting struggles/challenges, Adolescent/children's concerns, Anger issues, Relationship challenges, Career/vocational concerns, Communication issues, Life adjustment issues, Job related stress, Stress management, Generational Trauma in Black women and Disordered eating.
