A note from Maria

Great to meet you! I’m Maria T. Cruz, a NY-based clinical therapist passionate about BIPOC mental wellness. I support individuals in reconnecting with their authentic selves beneath layers of systemic and cultural trauma. My trauma-informed, holistic approach addresses Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Bipolar Disorder, and BIPOC grief from relational or physical loss, often through Jungian and shadow work. I offer a safe, empowering space with honest, professional care—helping clients reclaim their intuitive power and remember they are already whole and complete.
