“?I cannot recommend Maria highly enough. From our first session it was clear that I was working with a professional who is not only intelligent and insightful but also deeply compassionate. ?In the time we have worked together I have experienced significant personal growth and major improvements in my overall quality of life. Maria has a unique ability to listen with genuine understanding while providing the practical tools and perspectives needed to navigate complex challenges. ?What sets her apart is the perfect balance of empathy and intellectual depth. I always feel heard and supported, yet I am consistently challenged to grow in ways I hadn’t thought possible. Maria provides tools and take away lessons that I repeat to myself throughout the week to make sure I am being more intentional. ?I am incredibly grateful for the progress I’ve made, and I look forward to continuing our work together.

Getting to know Maria Savino
Perhaps you are experiencing stress in your days, have relationships filled with conflict, or are not feeling passionate about your career—thinking your goals seem out of reach. With a Master’s in Social Work from City University of New York, Hunter College, and a Master’s in Clinical Health Psychology from Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University, I take a total approach by clarifying your needs, identifying your goals, managing stress, increasing coping skills, and improving relationships. Together, we will make strides toward greater overall life satisfaction. Collaboratively, we will create functional habits and make positive changes by overcoming mental and emotional obstacles that prevent you from living your best life. The psychotherapy process will support you in addressing challenges that keep you from living authentically and becoming the best version of yourself.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I'm invested in the collaborative process of your therapy journey, have a style that is empathetic and nonjudgmental, and approach each session with a supportive spirit.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My experience, working with a broad range of issues, has shown that inspiring trust and offering knowledge-based therapeutic practice provides the basis for meaningful psychotherapy. Through improving your ability to think from a clear perspective, by challenging negative thoughts and mental blocks, we will work towards a habit shift, ultimately improving your life flow.

If you’re looking for a therapist who actually "gets it," I cannot recommend Maria enough. From our first session, she created such a safe, non-judgmental space.
Maria is an exceptional listener. She has this way of picking up on the small things I say and helping me connect the dots in ways I never could on my own. I came to her carrying a lot of heavy baggage from past trauma and a toxic relationship, and I was completely stuck in these thoughts of anxiety and depression.
Through working with her, I’ve been able to completely shift my perspective. She didn’t just give me "coping skills"; she helped me dismantle the negative stories I was telling myself and replace them with something much healthier and more realistic. I’ve made significant, tangible changes in my life that I honestly didn’t think were possible a year ago.
Maria is genuine and easy to talk to. She has supported my growth without ever making me feel broken. She’s truly helped me be my best self.

Finding Maria was a turning in my life. Struggling with low confidence and anxiety for some time created negative thought cycles for me. From our first session Maria created a safe and validating space that made it easy to open up.Maria has a remarkable ability to understand-it felt as if she could see beyond what I said and grasp all that was inside. Her insightful questions and empathetic presence helped gain a fresh perspective and recognize what held me back. Her personality blends warmth humor and professionalism that makes every session comfortable and enjoyable despite the challenging issues discussed. With her guidance I have learned invaluable tools for managing emotions and navigating difficult situations. I have gained a clearer understanding of myself my relationships have improved and I have more confidence in expressing my needs. I am engaging with life in a way that I never thought possible. Maria has allowed me to feel empowered and has enriched my life in profound ways

Maria is truly an exceptional therapist. Her experience in her profession and skill, is felt in every one of my sessions. Maria has a remarkable ability to listen, and picks up on the nuances of the unspoken words beneath the surface. She has a great deal empathy, makes you feel genuinely understood and validated, and creates a non judgemental safe space to talk about difficult issues and emotions. Her sessions guide you gently in offering insightful perspectives and practical tools that empower you to navigate challenges and make positive changes in your life. Maria has made a great impact on my life and has inspired me in many ways. Sessions with Maria don't feel heavy, her personality is truly a delight.
