Maxi Malone-Deese, LPC

Professional Bio

Hi, My name is Maxi. I have a wide range of experience in all sectors of therapy including outpatient, inpatient, agency, and private practice. I’ve worked with a wide variety of age groups -from toddlers to seniors- and I’m specifically skilled in helping clients work through anxiety, depression, dual-diagnosis, psychosis, family conflict, and behavioral problems.

Being an only child, I always understood that feeling of not having anyone to talk to, and as I began to choose a career I wanted to be that listening ear for others. It’s so rewarding to me to help others along in their mental health journeys, and I love that satisfying feeling you get when you see the growth in another person. Watching something broken work toward wholeness again is both refreshing and fulfilling.

Therapy has taught me that we are more alike than we think. Most humans deal with the same emotions and issues. It is how we deal, due to cultural norms, values, and experiences, that makes us different from one another. I want to help my clients deal with life in a way that promotes personal growth and self awareness.

As your therapist, I promise to create a safe space for you, afford you room for honesty, and provide you with constructive criticism, love, and empathy.
