“She is a very direct therapist. She likes to get to the root of the problem and then help you find a solution. She always gives me two goals for the week and if I don’t complete it she makes us discuss why it didn’t work. She really is about her work.”

“What's made Maria such a great therapist for me personally is the combination of a warm, humorous, direct, smart and very solution-oriented approach.
The onboarding and overview that she provided in the first session of her style as a therapist and setting expectations of what her clients typically experience was the best that I've ever had. Setting the context for new patients is so important and was very much appreciated.
I feel like I've made so many improvements and have new tools and ways to process my own thought and behavioral patterns. ”
