Hi there, I'm Maaria!

I have a passion for helping others feel a sense of belonging, acceptance, understanding, and recognition. I believe therapy is a safe place to explore and navigate underlying issues, and what needs to change in order to help you gain a deep sense of understanding, acceptance, connection, and fulfillment.

My focus

I work with adolescents, adults, elderly adults, families, and couples. My approach works best with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, life transitions, environmental stressors, relationship problems, mood dysregulation, grief, loss, and trauma.

My approach

I utilize an individualized and integrative person-centered approach tailored to your unique needs. There is not a one-size-fits-all approach, so I draw from CBT, EMDR, attachment-based therapy, Family systems, Psychodynamic, DBT, Humanistic, and Interpersonal modalities to support your growth and healing.
