About Maria
She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, heal from trauma and abuse, and navigate mood conditions such as bipolar disorder and depression, including work with schizophrenia-related concerns. Her practice also addresses compassion fatigue, intimacy-related issues, anger, and self-esteem, and she provides support for LGBT clients and others facing complex presentations such as dissociation, chronic illness, co-morbidity, and social anxiety.
Maria emphasizes treating each person with dignity, respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She tailors conversations and treatment plans to reflect the unique circumstances and goals of each individual, drawing on evidence-informed methods to guide care. Maria recognizes that reaching out for help takes courage and she honors that step while working collaboratively to identify practical pathways forward.
Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take meaningful steps even in the presence of difficult thoughts and feelings. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and patterns that become barriers to valued living. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood-related challenges. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship in which the therapist listens closely and helps the person explore their own solutions and strengths.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Maria works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods align best with their needs, goals, and preferences. Therapy can evolve over time, combining elements from different approaches as appropriate.
Online therapy with a licensed professional offers flexibility and accessibility, allowing people to meet by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, support those living far from in-person services, and provide multiple ways to communicate based on comfort and circumstance.
