Hola! Welcome—I’m Maria, a NY and NJ clinically licensed psychotherapist.
If you, your child, or your teenager are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, grief, challenges of ADHD (including wondering if you might have it), or trauma and there is a readiness to make real changes, I may be the right fit for you. I work best with people, of all ages who are open, motivated, and willing to dig into the work of therapy so they can move toward the life they want.
I work best in helping others manage anxiety, trauma, grief, ADHD and aim to be able to provide CBT for weight management. My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with other evidence-based methods, always grounded in a strengths-based perspective - and sprinkled with humor and empathy.
If you're looking to better manage current challenges and feel more empowered, I’d be honored to support you, or your loved one, and walk alongside you as you step into greater clarity, peace, and empowerment. Healing is not easy—and it’s never linear—but it is possible. Please email me to schedule to chat for 15 minutes to see if we are a good fit.
