Maria Lopez

Maria Lopez

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 28 mi away • North Richland Hills, TX


Reaching out for support can feel intimidating, but you don’t have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I believe healing begins when you feel truly seen, heard, and accepted. My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you can be yourself, explore what’s weighing on you, and discover your own strength. I work with teens, adults, women, and families experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, and the stress that comes with everyday life. As a bilingual counselor fluent in English and Spanish, I also understand how culture, family expectations, and personal experiences can shape our emotional well-being. Together, we’ll build on your strengths, develop practical tools, and work toward the life you want to create—one step at a time.
