Maria is not simply an amazing person but also a kind, attentive, responsive, respectful, dignified and professional therapist. She gives me valuable advice and insight, even providing me with therapeutic activities to do outside of therapy. She fosters a comfortable environment that puts me at ease and make it seem like our sessions are in person. Maria is the bomb dot com!

I've been working with Maria for a few sessions now, and her advice is always really helpful. I find myself referring back to our conversations and the notes I take during our sessions when I am faced with navigating situations that usually send me into an anxious or reactive state. The perspective she offers is really helping me take stock of the way I talk to and about myself, and I do my best to implement the changes we talk about in our sessions. Therapy isn't a one-way street, we patients also have a responsibility to apply the tools our therapists give us and hold ourselves accountable with them. I'm grateful to Maria for her guidance and the tools she gives me!

I'm glad I got matched with Maria. She is exceptionally kind, very empathic, reliable, and has a lot of experience in her field. I not only learned a lot of things, but I enjoyed talking to her, too. I was lucky to meet someone like her on my journey.
