Maria’s Therapy Services
It’s really important that you find a good connection with your therapist. Rather than do things the typical way, I have created a system designed around your needs. My main orientation is incorporating holistic approaches with Trauma focus approaches and Narratives/stories, working on self-awareness intergenerational trauma, and looking at multigenerational healing. I believe in processing and healing past wounds, while also working with the body and what is coming up in the present moment using body-oriented techniques and mindfulness. All of my services incorporate a touch of Liberation Psychology and focuses on regaining your natural generational healing practices. Please note that all services can also be provided in Spanish.
My approaches.
I approach therapy with a holistic and spiritual lens considering mind, body, and spiritual wellness. I enjoy working collaboratively with my clients; helping them to become empowered and find a sense of purpose and fulfillment in their lives and relationships. Sometimes in life we feel stuck, lost, or simply want to learn more about ourselves - I provide therapy to help you heal and grow.
I work with a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship problems, life transitions, work/career changes, intergenerational trauma, the acculturation process and dealing with everyday stressors. I work with adults, children, and families, and have experience with diverse populations including BIPOC.
