Getting to know Aleksandar Maric

Healing is only possible in relationships where we feel heard, seen, and cared for. I strive to help people accept their vulnerability and view it as a source of immense courage rather than weakness. By tapping into our innate wisdom, we can navigate through the challenges of depression, anxiety, and trauma with strength and grace. Through our collaborative journey, you'll explore the transformative power of introspection, reflection, and intentional/meaningful movement while unlocking new pathways to emotional resilience. I like integrating my sports psychology background with talk therapy to promote meaningful movement and connection to nature. I have extensive experience working with addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, and ADHD while providing individual and couples therapy. I prefer to use an integrative approach that often combines emotionally focused, narrative, and solution-focused approaches. I am a client-centered therapist who emphasizes collaboration and a resilience-based approach that is trauma-informed and non-pathologizing. I am curious about my clients and what they need. I see them as experts in their experiences, and I am honored to be a part of a mutual exploration of their preferred selves. My goal is to support clients learn how to tolerate overwhelming feelings, improve their sense of safety, and move toward their hopes and dreams.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Therapy, at its core, is a relationship — a unique space built on trust, presence, and collaboration. My approach is integrative, drawing from various modalities to meet your needs as a whole person — emotionally, mentally, relationally, and somatically. There’s no one-size-fits-all path to healing, and I’m committed to helping you discover what growth looks and feels like for you. In our work together, you can expect honest and compassionate dialogue, with a tone that’s both grounded and encouraging. I strive to balance compassionate curiosity with clear, direct communication — creating a space where you can explore challenges and strengths without judgment. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, working through trauma, or navigating a complex relationship, I’m here to support you in moving toward a more connected, intentional way of being. I developed a passion for psychology and philosophy in my early twenties. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology. I have completed one year of a master’s program with a focus on sports psychology. I received my master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I wanted to improve my communication, relate better to the people and clients I was working with, understand myself better, and adequately face personal issues and past traumatic events. I consequently developed an interest in mental health, emotional resilience, and intricate family dynamics that shape us as individuals. I became a believer that with the proper support and resources, people could find solutions and become active in authoring preferred narratives. Resourcefulness exists in all people. Additionally, I believe clients are best understood if we take time to reflect on relevant cultural and dominant societal factors to ensure treatment objectives and interventions are consistent with the attitudes and behaviors distinctive of a range of multicultural perspectives and backgrounds.
