Getting to know Maryam Elquza

Hi there, I'm Maryam! Facing changes that feel difficult to navigate? I help clients with anxiety, depression, stress, & trauma with compassion and empathy. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel comfortable exploring your thoughts and emotions while working toward greater clarity, healing, and personal growth. My focus I work with adults who are navigating the emotional and psychological challenges of living with chronic medical conditions, as well as those experiencing stress, anxiety, or depression. Together, we will help improve your overall well-being, and move toward the goals that matter most to you. My approach I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify unhelpful thought patterns, build practical coping strategies, and develop skills that empower you to navigate challenges with greater confidence and resilience. I also use a person centered approach to build a trusting, supportive relationship that respects each patient's values and goals. My communication style I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at your own pace. I offer honest, compassionate feedback to help you recognize patterns, build insight, and move toward meaningful change. My journey to mental healthcare My journey into therapy began with a passion for understanding people’s stories and supporting them through life’s challenges. I am continually inspired by the courage clients bring to their healing journeys and the opportunity to support them as they gain insight, build confidence, and create lasting change. My goals for you I help clients reach their goals by creating a collaborative and supportive environment where we can identify what matters most to them. Together, we reflect on current challenges, build upon existing strengths, and develop personalized goals that align with their values, needs, and vision for well-being.
