Max Lasher is the owner and therapist of MDLasher LLC. Max believes firmly that the heart of therapy is providing companionship and reflection for clients as they approach topics of personal growth and healing. As a queer, non-binary, chronically ill, neurodivergent counselor, they strive to create nonjudgmental, safe therapy spaces above all else. Max is trained in EMDR and also employs a combination of DBT, IFS, somatic therapy, and motivational interviewing based on each person’s specific needs at the time. They are passionate about keeping up with research on trauma and emerging psychotherapy methods and using the ever-expanding research on the human brain as a source of input for their therapeutic approach. Coming from a social work background, Max also firmly believes that many of the struggles their clients face stem from the current state of the world, and aims to validate and connect these dots while still helping clients find ways to navigate such obstacles. They believe that it's truly possible to release trauma from the mind and body with therapeutic tools, and they approach each session with a client-centered mentality.
