Getting to know Maria Palomo

Hi there, I'm Maria! Maria J. Palomo, MFT 50903. I work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, boundaries, and self-esteem issues. I have over 18 years of experience and hold a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pacific Oaks College. I utilize a strength-based approach and believe that we all have it within ourselves to heal and live a purposeful life. My specialties include CBT, DBT, ACT, Trauma-Informed Care, relational issues, mindfulness and meditation, and talk therapy. My approach I meet my clients where they are, in a safe and non-judgmental environment. I believe it is important to build trust and go at the client's pace. My focus I work with highly motivated individuals who feel stuck and want to make a change. I help reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, sleep issues, self-esteem challenges, and support stress management. My communication style I create a non-judgmental, safe space where clients feel comfortable sharing their life stories. I am the kind of therapist my clients warm up to quickly and look forward to seeing. My journey to mental healthcare I have overcome many of my own challenges and, with support, have been resilient. I always knew I wanted to help people. I am empathetic and understanding, with a gift for meeting people where they are. I help clients reach their full potential by supporting, listening, and gently holding them accountable. Seeing people reach their treatment goals and improve their lives is what keeps me going. My goals for you I work collaboratively to identify goals that align with your values and morals. My first session with you During our first session, I will get to know your needs and treatment goals. Together, we will create a plan to decrease symptoms and improve your overall well-being.
