Hi, my name is Maria Fernanda and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. My professional background includes working with individuals from varied socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds in both, community mental health and private practice settings. As an immigrant, I deeply understand the challenges of balancing personal values, traditions, and belief systems while adapting to a new culture. I specialize in working with adults navigating trauma, relationship challenges, depressive symptoms, life transitions, anxiety, grief/loss, and experiences of abuse.
My therapeutic approach focuses on breaking cycles that no longer serve you, empowering you to achieve the content and fulfilling life you seek. I aim to create a supportive environment where your experiences and emotions are validated in a nonjudgmental space. I prioritize safety, autonomy and collaboration in our work together.
Being part of someone’s journey to healing is a privilege I deeply value. I am continually inspired by the strength and resilience of the human spirit, and it is my honor to support people on their path toward growth and self-discovery.
