I've met with a lot of therapists and Maria is just one of the best! She's really great at helping me look at relationships in a different perspective. She's great at listening and taking notes. And she just feels like someone I can trust.

Maria is a supportive, talented professional. She has the ability to blend empathy with accountability, asking tough questions when I need to hear them but always with respect, kindness and a supportive strategy on how to grow and move forward. Her insights are spot on and she always ends the session with encouragement. I highly recommend her as a therapist!

Maria has been amazing to work with. She helped me with my primary concerns very quickly. She struck a great balance between supporting me and challenging me, which I appreciated and needed. She is very caring and responsive. I would recommend her to friends and family members who likes a mix of support and understanding with a little bit of “touch love” and challenging their perspective. I learned a lot and could see an immediate change in my relationships after working with Maria. I especially appreciate the help in learning how to set boundaries.
