Maria is accepting new clients - Book a free consult.

You might be overcoming trauma or dealing with difficult emotions like sadness, anger and anxiety and it’s starting to feel hard to cope. This is leading you to feel helpless, unmanageable stress and you don’t know what to do.

In therapy with me, we’ll explore tools and techniques to help you find relief. I believe that therapy is not “one size fits all”. I pull from various modalities to tailor the sessions and treatment plan to your unique needs. My approach is non-judgmental and my goal is to provide you with a safe space where you can feel heard and understood.

I invite you to take the first step of your mental health journey by booking a free 15-min consultation with me to see if I might be a good fit for you. I look forward to supporting you!
