About Maria

She meets people where they are and helps them find steady ways to cope. Her tone is direct and compassionate, aimed at parents and adults who feel overwhelmed or stuck.

Background and approach
Maria draws on practical tools to manage symptoms and on talk-based work to understand patterns that keep problems going. Her work includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotional regulation and distress tolerance, and Client-Centered Therapy to make space for personal values and strengths.
She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for people coping with traumatic memories. With 15 years of clinical experience, Maria has helped people with grief, self-esteem, eating concerns, anger, bipolar disorder, and coping with major life changes. She also supports parents and people dealing with family conflict, adoption and foster care issues, and divorce or separation.
Maria is licensed in Indiana and Nevada and works in English. She aims to create a practical plan each person can use between sessions. If you feel ready to try talking with someone, she guides people through the next steps and scheduling so you can begin when it fits your life.

Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Maria uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that worsen anxiety or depression. CBT focuses on practical steps you can try between sessions to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines.She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy when strong emotions or relationship conflicts make life feel overwhelming. DBT teaches concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication.
Client-Centered Therapy is another part of her work, offering a space for people to reflect on values and make choices that match who they want to be. That approach emphasizes listening and collaborating on goals rather than prescribing one path.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about your goals, try things that match your needs, and adjust methods over time. Clients commonly try practical skills first and then add deeper processing if needed.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let you see facial cues and do longer sessions. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is low or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging give options for shorter check-ins, quick support during the week, and for people who process better in writing. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into school, work, or parenting schedules while keeping the focus on what helps you most.
