Getting to know Maria Perez

Hi there, I'm Maria! My name is Maria Mendez Perez. I am a bilingual first-generation Latina therapist passionate about helping adults experiencing overwhelming emotions due to unresolved trauma. I hold a Master's in Social Work from California State University, Sacramento. My approach In my years as a therapist, I have found that much healing can occur through a strong therapeutic relationship combined with evidence-based treatments. I look forward to talking with you to see if EMDR therapy and DBT skills are a good fit for your needs. My focus Most of my practice centers on supporting adults seeking to better manage symptoms of depression and anxiety while learning skills to improve emotion regulation. My communication style I offer a warm, nonjudgmental, and safe environment where you can explore the root of your distress. My journey to mental healthcare I am committed to being present for adults interested in learning effective skills to better manage emotions, conflicts, relationships, and increase mindfulness. My goals for you Together, we will review what brings you to therapy and what you hope to achieve. I tailor goals around your unique needs and aspirations. My first session with you In our first session, we'll begin with brief introductions and then explore the specific challenges you're facing. This helps us determine if we are a good match and allows us to create a personalized plan for your follow-up sessions.
