About Maria
Maria Lozano helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and relationship or family strains. She also supports those dealing with postpartum mood changes, compassion fatigue, and feelings of emptiness. Maria is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, practicing in California with 14 years of direct clinical experience.
Her approach is down-to-earth and focused on what matters day to day. Sessions often center on talking through current problems, building coping skills, and making small changes that add up.
Background and approach
She combines practical tools with attention to emotional and bodily signals so clients feel understood and walk away with something to try between appointments. Maria uses a mix of Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, psychodynamic ideas, and solution-focused work. She draws from somatic ideas when trauma or strong physical responses to stress show up.
Together these methods help people notice patterns, shift unhelpful thoughts, and experiment with new ways of responding. She brings a warm, compassionate presence to sessions and allows space for humor and tears. Maria describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client sets goals and she offers tools and support.
Her background also includes reproductive and perinatal work, so she is familiar with challenges around pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. People connect by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Maria aims to help clients reclaim a sense of agency and steadiness as they move through life changes.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Maria commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel heard and can identify their own goals; it helps with building trust, self-esteem, and navigating life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively to decide which methods match a person's goals and preferences. Together they try strategies, notice what helps, and adjust the plan over time so the work stays relevant and realistic.
Online sessions provide flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people use face-to-face conversation when more interaction is helpful. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or when a shorter contact fits a busy schedule. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or caregiving routines while still working toward meaningful change.
