More about Maria
- 21 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I specialize in post-traumatic growth, or what I call trauma rising, supporting clients in understanding and rising above their trauma. My foundational training is in psychodynamic psychotherapy, and I integrate interpersonal work, mindfulness, attachment theory, and spiritual exploration. I am an interactive clinician, and I see us sketching your story together. I believe our wounds can become our gifts, and healing is achievable through nurturing adult bonds of secure attachment.
