About Maya
Hi, I’m Maya Price (she/her) – a proud trans woman, integrative therapist, public speaker, writer, trainer, and co-founder of the award-winning LGBTQIA+ organisation Proud2Be.
For over 20 years, I’ve worked alongside LGBTQIA+ people, neurodivergent communities, and young people, providing support, guidance, and practical tools to navigate life with confidence and authenticity. My work blends lived experience, professional expertise, and creativity to create spaces where people can be seen, heard, and empowered.
My Work
🌿 Therapy & Coaching
I provide online therapy for adults 18+, primarily supporting trans and non-binary people, as well as the wider LGBTQIA+ community. My integrative approach draws on trauma-informed, person-centred, and relational therapies, with creative techniques like inner child and sand tray work.
I also offer Trans & Thriving Coaching, a practical, empowering service for trans femmes and marginalised genders who want to build confidence, explore self-expression, set goals, and thrive in everyday life. My neurodivergence (AuDHD) helps me understand and support clients who are neurodivergent themselves.
🏢 Training & Consultancy
I am available for workshops and training for therapists, counsellors, and supervisors who want to feel confident and equipped to support trans and/or gender-diverse clients.

✍️ Writing & Public Speaking
I’m the author of Chantilly, a fiction novel exploring themes of identity, community, and connection. Writing allows me to amplify trans and LGBTQIA+ stories and share nuanced, heartfelt narratives.
I’m also an experienced public speaker, having delivered TEDx talks and workshops on topics such as:
LGBTQIA+ inclusion and empowerment
Overcoming shame and building resilience
Personal and professional development
💄 Maya Makeup
As someone who loves creativity and self-expression, I share makeup tutorials, reviews, and GRWM videos online. This is a fun, authentic space where I explore confidence, style, and everyday self-care - while celebrating individuality and queerness.
My Philosophy
Everything I do is grounded in:
Authenticity: Honouring your story and journey
Empowerment: Providing tools and confidence to thrive
Inclusivity: Anti-oppressive and sex-positive practice
Creativity: Using multiple avenues to support self-expression
I believe everyone deserves spaces where they can explore, grow, and feel proud of who they are. Whether through therapy, coaching, consultancy, writing, public speaking, or makeup, my mission is to help you feel safe, seen, and thriving.
