About PsychMaven
At PsychMaven, we believe in the power of knowledge—gaining it, refining it, and most importantly, sharing it. Our mission is to support mental and behavioral health professionals by offering insights, education, and resources that help them thrive in their careers and personal lives.
​
We do this through courses, live seminars, podcasts, articles, consulting, and community groups. Whether you're looking to build a successful private practice, refine your clinical skills, or find work-life balance, we’re here to help.

What is a Maven?
The word Maven comes from Yiddish, originally meaning a specialist or expert—someone with a deep passion for learning and a drive to share their knowledge. Malcolm Gladwell popularized the term in The Tipping Point, describing Mavens as people who naturally absorb, analyze, and pass on valuable information.
​
At PsychMaven, we embrace this spirit. We've navigated the challenges of behavioral health professions, and along the way, we've discovered what truly works. Now, we share those lessons to help others grow.
