Hi there, I'm Maria!

I offer therapy for individuals and families ready to make meaningful changes. With a compassionate and empowering approach, I help people navigate life's challenges, heal from past wounds, and build tools for change. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, or feeling stuck in old cycles, I'm here to walk alongside you.

My focus

I work with people experiencing life transitions, anxiety, parenthood, relationship conflict, and trauma. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported, especially when life feels messy or uncertain. My specialties include supporting families in conflict, parenting challenges, anxiety and depression, and life transitions.

My approach

My approach is trauma-informed and rooted in attachment theory, family systems, CBT, and empowerment theory. I believe therapy is a place of self-discovery that implements hands-on coping skills to improve self-awareness, self-esteem, and help you feel a better sense of control aligned with your values.
