Getting to know Maria Almanza

As a therapist, I have a passion for helping individuals identify and challenge negative or unhelpful thought patterns that influence emotions and behaviors. I have over 4 years of experience in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), and trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT).CBT is often goal-oriented, short-term, and based on the principle that our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected. Being trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), a specific form of CBT often used to treat PTSD, adds a specialized skill set. CPT focuses on helping clients process traumatic experiences by identifying stuck points, or thoughts that hinder recovery, and encouraging them to reframe these thoughts in a more balanced and realistic way. In summary, my training in both CBT and CPT would combine general cognitive restructuring techniques with specialized trauma processing tools to help clients achieve mental well-being. I’d help clients develop healthier thought patterns and guide them through difficult emotional experiences, fostering a more positive outlook and improved functioning in their daily lives.
