Hi there, I'm Maria!

It is time to put yourself first! I am here to support at any stage of your life. My goal is to teach you techniques and skills that aid self-awareness, self-confidence and self-investment.

My focus

You may not know how you got to this point in life and that is ok. You may be struggling with negative or intrusive thoughts, worry, sadness, or anger due to situations in your life. You may be navigating changes, trauma or self-esteem issues. I am here to support you on your personal growth.

My approach

I help individuals and families with life experiences, life changes, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I take a person centered and collaborative approach, while providing a safe and supportive therapeutic environment. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other evidenced based approaches due to each person's needs.

My communication style

You can expect me to be open, honest, clear, respectful and non-judgmental. I will maintain a calm and supportive demeanor throughout the therapeutic process.

My journey to mental healthcare

My lived experience led me to want to help others and support their personal growth. In my training I had the opportunity to work with youth and families, in systems; school's, child welfare & juvenal justice systems. I supported individuals and families by teaching them skills and techniques that lead to their positive changes.

My goals for you

I will work with you to identify and develop goals. As you achieve goals or make progress, I will support you in adjusting or changing goals.

Our first session

In our first session we will get to know each other, as well as your background and what is bringing you to therapy. Therapy is a process and each session is an opportunity build upon it.
