Hi, I’m Maria, and I’m thrilled that you’ve found me at BetterHelp for your therapeutic journey. I am a compassionate and attentive Licensed Mental Health Counselor, licensed in both New York and Florida, with ten years of professional experience. I have worked with clients and their families who speak both English and Spanish, addressing a range of issues including depression, anxiety, panic attacks, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, family conflicts, trauma, and various forms of abuse. I offer individual and family psychotherapy, as well as psychoeducational sessions. My services are designed for bilingual Spanish/English clients, and I provide mental health assessments and treatment for young adults and adults. My approach includes a comprehensive array of behavioral health services tailored to meet individual needs, with a strong emphasis on building relationships and setting goals. I provide support for coping with life changes, alongside individual and family therapy. I believe that you are the expert of your story and have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things and challenges you may encounter.
