There’s no one therapeutic approach to help us live happier lives. Recovery from painful experiences, emotional or physical abuse, a complicated hurt-filled relationship, impasses at work, coping mechanisms that no longer help—these different challenges deserve flexible approaches. Childhood skills no longer fit the problems we face as adults. Grief that couldn’t be dealt with then is more complicated now. Relief from depression and anxiety cannot work if confidence, strength, and intimacy are blocked. Understanding the whole person—creating new approaches and thoughtful solutions to problems—is the way I think and work.

María A. Vargas is a bilingual (English/ Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Massachusetts. She earned her Master's of Social Work with honors from the prestigious Beatriz Lassalle School of Social Work at the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras Campus in 2016. Being an immigrant herself, María believes in a critical practice of the profession by simple gestures like calling the individuals "participants", instead of “patients” or “clients”. This is to acknowledge their right to self-determination, the uniqueness of their human experiences, and the importance of their participation in the therapeutic process.

Hi, I'm a clinical psychotherapist specializing in teletherapy for individuals experiencing anxiety, relationship issues, life transitions, and the stress of medical diagnoses (and am board-certified in CA and MA). As I work with clients who are anxious or engage in rigid thinking, I strive to grow a capacity for openness, curiosity, calm, and joy. I have extensive experience in psychodynamic psychotherapy, which considers the roots of our emotions and how we may engage in patterns that don’t serve us; cognitive-behavioral therapy, which provides tools to use in everyday life; and mindfulness, to help you experience life more fully.

I am looking to work with people who are not satisfied with how things are in their life, and ready to take control in order for their lives to improve. In addition to actively listening and problem solving, I coach individuals to activate specific techniques designed to be applied throughout their daily lives. It is in the hands of the individual to apply these skills in order to reach their goals. If an individual is not quite there, we'll work together to figure out what's blocking their potential.
