Integrative Clinical Therapist | Private Practice Owner | Clinical Consultant
Maya A. Williams-Bond-Jackson (She/He), LMHC, is an Integrative Clinical Therapist, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and Clinical Consultant with over a decade of experience supporting individuals, communities, and organizations through complex clinical, systemic, and transitional challenges. She is the founder of Behind the Latest Minds, LLC, a private practice rooted in whole-person healing that honors the interconnectedness of mind, body, culture, identity, and lived experience.
A proud alumna of Clark Atlanta University, a Historically Black College and University (HBCU), Maya earned her bachelor’s degree in psychology within a legacy of Black excellence, cultural affirmation, and social consciousness. She later completed her master’s degree in clinical psychology at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, where she refined her clinical expertise and deepened her commitment to accessible, affirming, and evidence-based care.
Maya brings a diverse and comprehensive clinical background, having worked across hospitals, educational institutions, community mental health agencies, community-based programs, non-profit organizations, and higher levels of care including Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs) and Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHPs). This breadth of experience allows her to support individuals with varying levels of acuity while also understanding how care systems intersect, fragment, or support healing across settings.
In addition to her clinical practice, Maya offers clinical consultation to agencies, organizations, and multidisciplinary teams, supporting them as they strengthen community engagement, culturally responsive programming, and trauma-informed systems of care. Her consulting work focuses on improving service delivery for populations impacted by co-occurring mental health and behavioral health conditions, chronic stress, identity-based trauma, and systemic barriers to care.
Maya’s consultation lens integrates mind–body awareness, psychosomatic understanding, and cultural humility, helping organizations move beyond siloed treatment models toward more holistic, relational, and sustainable approaches. She collaborates with agencies to enhance screening practices, treatment planning, staff training, and psychoeducation, ensuring care is inclusive, accessible, and grounded in real-world community needs.

Professional Philosophy
At the core of Maya’s work is a grounded and affirming belief: healing does not require self-fragmentation. Whether working with individuals or organizations, she approaches care as a collaborative process that honors complexity, identity, and lived experience while remaining rooted in compassion, accountability, and growth.
As she often shares:
“I don’t have a cure or a magic wand to change you, but I do have the knowledge, compassion, and experience to support growth. Together, we will explore the intersections of lived experience and heal using integrative, holistic, and grounded methods.”
