Maysie is exactly the kind of ally/guide you want on your healing journey: She’s honest and ethical and she combines warmth, kindness, and approachability with a practical, no-nonsense attitude. Maysie is committed to helping clients find concrete ways to deal with their difficulties. Her approach is pragmatic and emphasizes self-acceptance and harm reduction. Maysie also works with clients on the deeper, more complex issues that take time to unfold. She is patient and respectful of each client’s preferred pacing. She has a special interest in supporting people who have suffered from being in relationship with a highly narcissistic family member or partner.

It is a pleasure to write this review of Maysie Tift, MFT, whom I have known for many years. I supervised Maysie a number of years ago in an Outpatient Mental Health Department at a local hospital. Not only did I supervise her, but together we facilitated psychotherapy groups. I could see then that in addition to excellent clinical skills, Maysie possessed a genuine interest in helping others and the kind of compassion that cannot be taught. Over the years, it has been a joy to watch her as she has honed those skills, such as true empathy and the capacity to meet her clients with an array of approaches aimed at addressing their issues. And her compassion has just deepened. I’m very happy to have Maysie as a colleague and someone whom I call on to cover my clients when needed.

Maysie is a colleague of mine whom I recommend for compassionate and non-judgmental exploration of substance use and abuse. She is warm, thoughtful, and truly cares about supporting each clients individual needs and goals. She expresses understanding and patience for those who feel ambivalent or need space to explore what substance use means for them. She also supports clients working through issues around relationships, work, anxiety, and depression

Maysie is an outstanding therapist whom I can whole heartedly recommend. She brings an unusual combination of warmth, tenderness and down-to-earth directness and humor to her work with her clients. As her colleague, I can attest to her collaborative and respectful nature, and her true caring and commitment to helping her clients meet their goals. Maysie herself is creative, intuitive, kind, and authentic. She delights in exploring and going off the beaten track, working with artists and others who see themselves as unconventional, marching to the beat of their own drummer.
