Integrative Approaches and Remote Care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience and values, offering a supportive environment where clients can explore feelings, clarify goals, and build self-understanding. It is helpful for improving self-esteem, navigating relationship issues, and working through life transitions.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, goal-oriented approach that helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic attacks, low mood, and stress-related difficulties, and it equips clients with practical coping strategies.
Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence present behavior, helping clients gain insight into relational patterns, attachment issues, and recurring emotional themes.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maria works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to assess needs, discuss preferences, and arrive at a plan that feels like the best fit. This collaborative process helps tailor techniques to each person’s goals and circumstances.
Online therapy offers flexible access to support through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions around work, family, and other commitments, and they allow therapists and clients to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible.
