I view therapy as a collaborative and transformative process, where the therapist and client work together in a supportive, non-judgmental space to explore emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.

My motto is: "Helping People Help Themselves to a Better Life. I support people with a smile and a reassuring description of my skills and abilities. I reinforce my respect for their choices as we engage in therapy together. I work to create a safe space for clients to address their issues.

I cannot move mountains for you, but I can help you climb. Facing fears, healing from loss, finding meaning and joy - these are the inevitable tasks of life. Therapy may be your first step or your last resort. Often people avoid it all together because they believe their pain is too great, worry they will be judged or that their situation is too complicated. Some people believe they should solve problems on their own or only with family and friends. However, while family and friends may want the best for us, they often come with opinions or past hurts. Sometimes it helps to have a safe space outside your daily experience.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who provides a warm, down to earth space where you can feel comfortable being yourself.

Hello! My name is Mariya and I received my Master's in Counseling, with an undergrad degree in Human Development. I became a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in June 2020. I have worked with many individuals from many walks of life, including depression, anxiety, grief/loss, ADHD, job changes, relationship concerns/issues, parenting stress and much more. I am here to provide hope, a different perspective or guidance on whatever concerns you may have.

Starting therapy often means saying things out loud for the first time. You don't have to have the words ready — that's part of the work.

I work with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and major life transitions, including the particular strain of rebuilding a life in a new country, holding a family across borders, or carrying a loss that happened somewhere else.

Much of my career has been spent with people on the worst day of their lives. I responded to the 1999 Vargas disaster in Venezuela, and worked with Project Liberty in New York after 9/11, training paramedics, firefighters, and highway police along the way. You do not have to protect me from what happened to you.

I trained first as a psychologist in Venezuela and completed my master's in mental health counseling in New York. I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York and Connecticut, a National Certified Counselor, and EMDR-certified.

Sessions are available in English and Spanish. Not translated — I work in both.

If you're deciding whether to reach out, you don't need to be certain. You only need to be curious enough to start.
