Hi there, I'm Maria Teresa! I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) Marriage and Family Therapist with 14 years of experience in treating individuals including adults and children; families and couples. I help my clients identify the roots of their struggles in life and find strategies to make the changes they need. If you feel down, fearful, feeling like all is falling apart; this may be the moment to meet and talk together about it. I am here; ready to listen and mindfully work with you to understand your needs.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My therapeutic approach is one of affirmative support to remind you of your knowledge, autonomy and abilities to make the changes you need. Above all, you should expect a therapeutic environment that is compassionate, empathetic, and safe.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
* Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) * Existential * Narrative
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
In the sessions with me, you can expect an environment where you and I explore your thoughts, feelings and responses to your current problems; we will work on contextualizing them and finding the roles they play in your life and the relationship you have with them.
