Maria Tarquinio-Kuhn
(she/her)
My name is Maria. I have been practicing therapy for 20 years. I have worked in a variety of settings such as, a hospital emergency room seeing individuals struggling with mental health issues. I have also work with children and adults. I feel privileged to have you allow me into your life and share your experiences and struggles with me.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Clients will know that they will be respected and never judged. They will know compassion and understanding. I am a "down to earth" type person and will not sugar -coat things to make anyone feel better but I will walk through the hard times with a person because everyone needs to feel important and know that someone cares.....and I do.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I work well with clients that are struggling with depression, anxiety, work stress, relationship problems, parent issues, behavioral issues, LGBTQIA community
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I am happy to work with all clients of all ages. The youngest person I have seen was 3 years old and the oldest was 99 years old. Everyone needs to be supported, and I am here to help.

My treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is used to help clients rethink how they perceive things. It helps to look at different perspectives before making any decisions or reacting to what you perceive to be correct.
Grief Therapy
Clients may need to discuss losses regarding death, loss of a relationship, loss of job. Grief counseling with help them look at the grief, work through their emotions, and move forward with their goals.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Solution-Focused therapy will help the client with what issues are at hand at the moment. The client will bring the issue to the therapist, and they will work through the issue and look for a solution that the client is comfortable with.

It was good listening today, and i took away a couple of suggestions at the end to think about. Not sure when I'll take action on those.

Sometimes you get lucky. My referral to Maria and growtherapy was a cold call by my Healthcare Provider. So I had no idea what I was going to get. I'm getting lots of support, and tools to support my sojourn. Thank you.

I know I must be a challenge at this stage of my life, but I really appreciate having someone to work through things with.
