Hi there, I'm Maritza!
I bring not only clinical expertise but also a deep commitment to understanding how systems of power, race, and identity shape our lived experiences. My practice is grounded in Critical Race Theory, which means I approach therapy with an awareness of how systemic inequities impact mental health, relationships, and self-perception.
My focus
I work with clients who are ready to start the conversation, whether that means exploring long-held concerns, current stressors, or deep emotional wounds. My clients are often individuals who may not have had the space to fully express themselves before, but are now open to having honest and sometimes difficult conversations about their lives.
My approach
My approach is client-centered and trauma-focused, meaning I prioritize your unique experiences, strengths, and goals while recognizing the profound impact trauma can have on one’s emotional, psychological, and relational well-being. I understand that healing doesn't happen in a vacuum.
