Getting to know Maria Fernanda Chumacero Flores

Maria is an Associate Therapist who works with individuals navigating life transitions, immigration-related challenges, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, trauma, grief, and mood disorders. Her approach is person-centered, open, and warm, creating a collaborative therapeutic space where clients feel heard and supported. She believes in incorporating humor when appropriate, making therapy both meaningful and approachable. Clinically, Maria draws from cognitive-behavioral approaches, mindfulness, and body awareness practices, with a strong foundation in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). She helps clients cultivate thought awareness, clarify their values, and build a sense of meaning in daily life. These principles—particularly radical acceptance and committed action—are central to her practice. Maria is committed to culturally sensitive and trauma-informed care, recognizing how language and lived experiences shape identity and emotional well-being. She believes that a person’s greatest treasure is their life story, as it encompasses all they are and who they aspire to become. As a therapist, she considers it a privilege to walk alongside her clients on their journey. Maria holds a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a specialization in Clinical and Health Psychology from Mexico and a Master’s in Psychotherapy from Spain. She has experience working in community mental health settings and private practice in both the U.S. and Mexico, allowing her to integrate diverse therapeutic approaches to best support each client’s unique path toward healing and growth.
