Hello, I'm Maritza Contreras, a licensed therapist committed to helping you navigate life's challenges with clarity and confidence. My therapeutic approach goes beyond traditional talk therapy; it's about taking meaningful action. Whether you're wrestling with depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, relationship complexities, emotion dysregulation, life transitions, or grief, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
I bring a hands-on approach, rooted in evidence-based therapies like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness. For relationship issues, I incorporate attachment theory into our work.
My ultimate goal is to empower you to trust yourself and face life's challenges with confidence. We'll work together on managing difficult emotions, addressing unhelpful thoughts, improving communication, cultivating healthy habits, enhancing problem-solving skills, discovering your values, and finding the best path forward through life's transitions.
