If you consider yourself a rebel with big feelings, you’re in the right place. If you have been told you're “too much,” “too angry,” or “too complicated,” thank you for being here.
My name is Maria (she/her) and I am a queer, neurodivergent, first-generation Filipinx therapist who specializes in the beautifully complex parts of the human experience: sex and kink, decolonial healing, shadow work, and couples work. Therapy with me is collaborative, culturally-rooted, and deeply affirming. I’m not here to fix you. I’m here to walk beside you as you reclaim what’s been stolen, silenced, or shamed.
My work is deeply rooted in social justice, sex-positivity, the mind-body connection, and collective liberation. With these systemic intersections in mind, I understand that there is no "one-size fits all" for therapy, thus making sure your healing is tailored to your unique circumstances is of utmost importance to me.
Whether you're navigating pleasure, sex, relationships, shame, rage, grief, identity, or intimacy, I am ready to swim alongside you, no matter how turbulent the waters.
Individuals, Couples, ENM welcome.
