ONLINE COUNSELING AVAILABLE! Get counseling without going out. I specialized in remote online counseling. I have immediate openings for daytime, evening, and weekend appointments. My passion is working with individuals relating to grief and other life transitions; which include, employment exit strategies, career decisions while identifying gifts and talents, finding your life calling and coaching through life altering events. I am a excellent couples counselor and whether you are preparing for marriage or married, I can help you become better communicators and partners for life.

As someone who has faced many adversities, life challenges, has had their own struggles with physical health and mental health – I completely get how hard it is to not only ask for help but the challenges and the courage it takes to be vulnerable enough to ask for help from others – even, from yourself. I acknowledge that one’s healing journey is not linear because it takes time, work, having plan B when plan A doesn’t work out, having plan C for plan B, etc. Most importantly, the need to develop some kindness and compassion with yourself to work through feelings or experiences that feel complicated, messy, or misunderstood.

I believe healing begins with building a trusting, authentic therapeutic relationship and affirming clients’ unique strengths and life experiences given their cultural background. I utilize Polyvagal Theory as a cornerstone for mind-body techniques to help heal one’s nervous system and past traumas, using ACT, CBT, Inner Child work, and Intersectional Feminist theory.

Hola, I'm Maria Camila or Maki! There are times when our lives feel like they have been turned upside down. At those times having someone join us on the journey can be the very thing we need for lasting healing and change. Together, we will focus on the pieces of you that have been lost or disconnected due to trauma, grief, mental/emotional issues, and deep relational wounds. With me, you'll have a warm and compassionate therapist who is genuinely interested in making a connection with you in a safe therapeutic space. In this partnership, your voice will be heard and valued.

I am thrilled to bring a unique blend of warmth, passion, reliability, and enthusiasm to my practice. My clients consistently commend my dependability, insightfulness, relatability, and compassion, which foster an open, honest, and safe environment where they can comfortably address the uncomfortable and tap into their innate strengths.

I work to provide a genuine, warm, nonjudgmental, validating, and comforting presence. I utilize an integrative and collaborative style and individualize my approach to best fit each client’s unique concerns and situations. My hope is that the therapeutic space can allow for reflection, exploration, and an increased understanding of yourself and your world.

I have a passion for helping individuals establish more satisfying, authentic relationships with others and with themselves. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, therapeutic environment that fosters well-being, healing, and growth. I strive to establish a collaborative, empowering atmosphere that strikes the balance between support and challenge. My style is generally warm, direct, and transparent. I am an empathetic listener and actively participate in sessions by sharing my observations, fostering insight, and sharing practical feedback to help my clients find relief and to effectively address the challenges of life.

I am a bilingual psychologist originally from South America. I provide therapy in Spanish and English, and have worked extensively with clients of Latin descent. I specialize in treating adults with mood disorders/depression/bipolar disorder, posttraumatic stress/trauma, anxiety disorders, life transitions, male depression, issues related to loss and grief, and relationships. My approach to therapy is highly empathic and is based on care and respect. I strongly believe in establishing a relationship of equals and mutual respect between therapist and client; one that leads to a guided journey of self-discovery and change.
