Hi there, I'm Maria!

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Los Angeles, CA, and I work with clients via telehealth. I work with adults and the elderly population. I specialize in anxiety, depression, grief/loss, and stress using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

My focus

I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for adults and elderly populations. I specialize in anxiety, depression, stress, and grief and loss. I work to help clients navigate their concerns and allow them to feel better about themselves and develop a more positive outlook in life.

My approach

My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each client. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a modality to assist clients in building an understanding of their situation and learn coping skills.
