More about Maria

  • 6 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I have been providing individual therapy in a medical setting for approximately six years. My main focus has been providing emotional support to expectant and postpartum mothers. I am familiar with Perinatal Mood Disorders, and the emotional dysregulations a woman experiences during pregnancy and postpartum. I also work with crisis interventions related to the medical field, such as adjustment to illness and grief and loss.

My main focus is to meet the client where they are at, which requires flexibility and active listening. I focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to improve emotional dysregulation. I focus on collaborating with clients to outline their strengths for desirable outcomes. I treat clients with the respect and integrity they deserve, regardless of socioeconomic status, education, sexual preference, and ethnicity.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
