Maria P
As a therapist, I am someone who embarked on a unique journey that shaped my path in psychology. After serving in the army, I found a deep passion for understanding the human mind and behavior. This newfound love led me to pursue further education and training in psychology, ultimately guiding me towards specializing in marriage and family therapy. My own experiences of building and nurturing a family have influenced my focus on helping couples and families thrive. I understand the dynamics and complexities that arise within intimate relationships and the importance of fostering healthy connections. My goal as a therapist is to create a safe and non-judgmental space where individuals, couples, and families can explore their emotions, conflicts, and challenges. Having worked in the field for five years, I have gained valuable experience and expertise in helping clients navigate their relationship dynamics and personal growth. I am committed to normalizing emotions, recognizing that experiencing a range of emotions is a natural and essential part of the human experience. My approach is centered around placing well-being as a priority. I believe that when individuals prioritize their own mental and emotional health, they are better equipped to cultivate healthy and fulfilling relationships. I work collaboratively with clients, empowering them to gain self-awareness, develop effective communication skills, and implement strategies that support their overall well-being. Through therapy, my intention is to support clients in fostering stronger connections, resolving conflicts, and achieving personal and relational growth. I am passionate about helping individuals and families navigate life's challenges, providing them with the tools and support they need to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In your first session with me as your therapist, you can expect a warm and welcoming atmosphere where you can feel comfortable and safe to open up. We will start by getting to know each other and building a strong therapeutic alliance based on trust and mutual respect. I will take the time to understand your reasons for seeking therapy and the goals you hope to achieve. During our initial session, I will actively listen to your concerns, experiences, and emotions without judgment. I will provide validation and empathy, ensuring that you feel heard and understood. We will explore the challenges you are facing and any relevant background or history that may be influencing your current situation. I will explain the therapeutic process to you, including the importance of confidentiality and the collaborative nature of our work together. We will discuss how we can work as a team to address your goals and develop a personalized treatment plan that fits your needs. Please keep in mind that therapy is a unique and individualized experience, tailored to your specific circumstances. I am here to support you, offer insights, and provide guidance as we embark on this journey together.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My biggest strengths as a therapist lie in the utilization of client-centered practices. By placing the client at the center of the therapeutic process, I create a supportive and empowering environment. My ability to reach clients through validation helps them feel heard and understood, fostering a deeper connection. Furthermore, my expertise in self-regulation allows me to be calm and composed, providing a sense of stability and safety for clients. My empathy enables me to truly understand client experiences and emotions, while my insightful approach helps clients gain new perspectives and insights into their lives. These strengths make me an effective and impactful therapist, guiding clients towards positive change and personal growth.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Over the past five years as a therapist, I have honed my skills in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT is a goal-oriented approach that helps clients identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. Through collaborative sessions, I have guided individuals in developing coping strategies, challenging unhelpful beliefs, and achieving lasting positive outcomes in managing their mental health.
Strength-Based
In my five years as a therapist, I have specialized in strength-based practices. This approach focuses on identifying and leveraging clients' existing strengths and resources to promote growth and resilience. By fostering self-awareness, emphasizing personal strengths, and encouraging positive self-talk, I have supported individuals in building confidence, developing effective coping strategies, and achieving their therapeutic goals.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
In my five years as a therapist, I have employed Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) with all clients, including those diagnosed with dual diagnosis. SFBT is a future-focused approach that emphasizes identifying clients' goals, strengths, and solutions rather than dwelling on problems. Through collaborative conversations, I have helped individuals set achievable goals, explore exceptions to challenges, and develop practical strategies to enhance their well-being and overcome obstacles.
Trauma-Focused CBT
Over the past four years, I have specialized in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) as a therapist. TF-CBT is a structured approach tailored for individuals who have experienced trauma. It combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with trauma-sensitive interventions to help clients process their experiences, manage distressing symptoms, build resilience, and restore a sense of safety and well-being.
Culturally Sensitive Therapy
In my five years as a therapist, I have focused on utilizing culturally sensitive therapy practices. This approach recognizes and respects the influence of culture on clients' experiences and tailors therapeutic interventions accordingly. By incorporating cultural awareness, adapting techniques, and promoting inclusivity, I have fostered a safe and supportive environment for clients from diverse backgrounds to explore their unique perspectives, values, and identities within the therapeutic process.
