Getting to know Maria Morales Chavarria

Hi there, I'm Maria! My approach to therapy begins with understanding each person's unique story. I am a Spanish-speaking therapist passionate about providing therapeutic services for children, teens, and adults who need support with family communication issues, family healing from adversities, and environmental challenges that come with change. I recognize that it can be difficult for families and children to seek therapy and accept support. I am enthusiastic about working with individuals facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, family and life stressors, anger management, trauma, low self-esteem, and communication difficulties. My goal as a therapist is to meet clients where they are and provide a safe space for therapeutic engagement. I use a variety of evidence-based modalities tailored to each client’s needs and long-term goals, including Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Art Therapy, and Play Therapy. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, addiction, domestic violence, self-care, codependency, grief, and postpartum depression. As a Hispanic-American and Spanish-speaking therapist, I bring lived experience with intergenerational trauma and am deeply committed to supporting the BIPOC community. My communication style is warm, friendly, non-directive, and non-judgmental, especially while building rapport. Creating and holding a safe space for clients is essential so they can begin their healing process.
