Getting to know Maria Alonso Nunez

With 20 years of experience as a medical social worker, hospice care and hospital settings, I have had the honor of supporting clients from diverse cultural backgrounds. As an immigrant myself who has navigated my own grief journey, I bring a personal understanding to my work. Holding a PhD in cultural anthropology enriches my awareness of how culture shapes the experience of loss and healing. I’m especially passionate about providing grief therapy to immigrants, recognizing how physical distance from loved ones can complicate grief. My approach is compassionate, culturally sensitive, and grounded in both professional expertise and lived experience.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
