For the past 8 years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting teens and adults as they navigate anxiety, trauma, life transitions, relationships, and other challenges that can leave them feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. Through my training as a clinical psychologist, I’ve learned that therapy is not just about managing symptoms—it’s about helping you understand yourself, build healthier ways of coping, and feel more grounded and secure in your mind, body, and relationships.

Whether you're seeking help for the first time, between providers, or managing ongoing conditions, I'm here to partner with you.

Hi, I’m Maria — I work with teens, transitional-age youth (16–25), and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, and the impact of trauma, including interpersonal violence and sexual assault. I know reaching out for support takes courage, and I’m glad you’re here.
I was always drawn to people who went unseen or unheard. Others told me I had a calm voice and that they could tell me anything. That led to a lifelong study of how people free themselves from their own patterns, later deepened by psychoanalysis and professional work in eating disorders, addiction treatment, and managed care settings like Kaiser.

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially when you are navigating the challenges you are facing.
