Maria is a Bilingual Mental Health Counselor. Virginia Satir said it best "As a therapist I try to be a companion and help people tune into their own wisdom". I strive to be that person for my client in their life that is capable of hearing and holding their pain. I have experience working with infants, children, adolescent, adults, couples and families. My goal is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for my clients where together we can work collaboratively to reach their goals. Maria enjoys working with children, families, couples, trauma survivors, LGBTQ+ community, addiction and recovery.
Her focus includes working with children and individuals that experience a variety of difficulties like depression, mood disorders, self-esteem and grief and loss as well as PTSD/Trauma, autism, anxiety as well as relationship and behavioral issues, parenting skills and developmental concerns and eating disorders.
