Getting to know Maria Najera

Hi there, I'm Maria! I am so happy you are here! My name is Maria Najera, and I am a licensed clinical social worker licensed in California with over 7 years of professional experience. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from the University of Southern California. My focus areas of practice include helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma and abuse, and grief and loss. I work primarily with individuals struggling with addiction as well as depression, anxiety, anger, bipolar disorder, and trauma. My approach is Person-Centered, Compassion Focused, Culturally Sensitive, and Emotionally Focused. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic, Strength-Based, and Trauma-Focused techniques. I provide a safe, trusting, and nurturing space for clients to process their thoughts and feelings. Together, we work collaboratively to identify effective coping skills so clients can achieve productive, meaningful, and fulfilling lives.
