I"m a LCSW who helps individuals, couples, and families create relationships that feel safe, steady, and connected. My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-based, and practical. I believe people don't need perfection - They need clarity, effective tools, and a therapist who shows up with warmth and a grounded presence. I help clients understand what's happening in their nervous system, why certain patterns keep repeating, and how to shift those patterns in ways that feel sustainable. Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship conflict, being emotionally overwhelmed, or developmental trauma, I offer a calm , structured space where you can slow down, make sense of your experience, and build new ways of relating to yourself and others. My work integrates solutions grounded in trauma informed practices, attachment theory and systems work. I am trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral (TF-CBT) therapy as well as Structured Psychotherapy for Adolescents Responding to Chronic Stress (SPARCS). But more importantly, I tailor therapy to the person in front of me. You won't get jargon or judgement. You will get clear guidance, steady support, and strategies you can use in real life... with your partner, your kids, your coworkers and yourself. Clients often share they appreciate my calm presence and straightforward style. I am not here to talk at you; I am here to walk with you. I bring both clinical expertise and lived experience of navigating a blended family, parenting neurodiverse children, and building healthy communication in high stress environments. I understand what it feels like to want change but feel stuck in old cycles. If you are looking for a therapist who is warm, direct, and committed to helping you grow, I would be honored to work with you. Together we will build clarity, connection and spark change - one step at a time.

Hello, Welcome and thank you for being here! My name is Maritza and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor. Starting therapy is a meaningful step and can bring up a lot at once; relief, uncertainty, hope, or even fear. All of these feelings are valid. I strive to create a warm and supportive space where you can slow things down and explore what’s been feeling heavy. Many of the people I work with are navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, or the impact of past experiences. This can show up as overthinking, worry, self-doubt, or feeling emotionally drained from trying to manage it all on your own. In our work together, we'll focus on understanding what’s getting in the way, build practical coping tools, and strengthen your ability to respond to life in ways that feel more grounded and intentional. Therapy is also a space for growth, reflection, and reconnecting with yourself in a deeper way. If you're looking for support in that process, I'm here when you're ready.

Life can become complicated when the strategies that once worked stop working. Whether you're navigating a recent ADHD or AuDHD diagnosis, struggling with burnout, anxiety, depression, or major life changes, it can feel like you're trying to solve a puzzle without all the pieces. As someone who was diagnosed later in life, I understand both the relief and the disruption that can come from finally having an explanation for lifelong challenges. That experience has shaped my approach to therapy and deepened my appreciation for the resilience people develop while trying to navigate a world that wasn't designed with their needs in mind. My work is grounded in the belief that every person has a unique nervous system, unique strengths, and unique challenges. Rather than treating a label, I focus on understanding you as a whole person. I draw from established therapy approaches, neuroscience, and our growing understanding of the connection between the brain and body. I also believe that therapy doesn't have to feel cold or clinical. Humor, relatable analogies, and practical tools are often part of our conversations. I work primarily with adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or exhausted from constantly trying to keep up. Many are navigating neurodivergence, life transitions, relationship challenges, or the loss of skills that can accompany chronic stress and burnout. I also provide an affirming space for clients in kink, polyamorous, and other consensual nontraditional relationships. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, reduce overwhelm, build sustainable strategies, and create a life that feels more authentic and manageable. You don't need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We can work through it together, one step at a time.

I work with clients who are struggling with grief, anxiety, depression or trauma. I also work with clients who may need assistance in processing everyday life stressors and want a supportive therapist whom they can confide in who will also challenge them and assist with problem-solving. I also work with those facing reproductive challenges. As a compassionate and empathetic therapist, I understand the complex emotional and psychological impact that infertility and miscarriage can have. I can: • Support you in maintaining hope, peace and positivity while navigating uncertainty and help you build resiliency as you work through obstacles. • Help you to recognize and access your deeper intuition, so you are better equipped to honor your body, spirit and mind with the highest intention throughout your journey. • Work with you on increasing clarity and purpose around your fertility journey. • Utilize a holistic approach to address integrative lifestyle strategies that may be beneficial to your fertility path. • Assist you in addressing relationship difficulties that can arise out of the stress of fertility challenges, help you develop strategies to increase intimacy with your partner and foster healthy communication. For women and men who have experienced reproductive loss: • The devastating and seemingly invisible pain of losing a pregnancy is unique in that it involves not only the loss of your baby, but also involves the loss of the future - and there is no accepted way to mark that loss. Sometimes it seems that friends and family members expect the person to move on quickly. Partners often grieve differently - and for men, the trauma of miscarriage is often overlooked. Also, some women may suffer guilt or shame associated with the loss that doesn't tend to occur with other types of grieving. • There is no universal template for grief. Together, we will address your unique needs as you work through your grieving process.

Starting therapy is a big step, especially during times of change or uncertainty. Whether you’re entering new phases of adulthood, exploring identity, or struggling with self-doubt, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I work with teens and young adults who are often navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, relationship challenges, or self-worth concerns. In our work together, the focus is on creating a space where you feel understood, supported, and able to be honest about what you’re going through.
