Hello! My name is Maricruz; I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I earned my Master’s Degree in Counseling in December 2010 from Angelo State University. Over the years, I have the privilege of working with school-age children, adolescents, adults, and couples. I have provided individual and group therapy. I have a passion for working with individuals who want to improve their lifestyles and find meaning in their lives. I strive to instill hope, perseverance, and biblical truth to help clients reach their goals.
My therapeutic experience combines Person-Centered, Cognitive-Behavioral, Solution-Focused, and Biblical Counseling. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I see my clients as unique individuals and tailor my techniques and approach to meet their specific needs.
Congratulations, you have made the most important step towards improving your life. I look forward to working with you and helping you in your new journey to a better version of yourself!
