A note from Maria
I am a licensed psychotherapist with extensive experience working with children, adolescents, adults, families, and couples. My goals are to help individuals achieve their highest potential, develop healthy coping skills, and live the life they aspire to. I specialize in the treatment of adjustment disorders, anxiety, child behavior problems, codependency, depression, family crisis, grief and loss, life transitions, substance abuse and trauma. I completed my undergraduate work in New York, and earned a Master's degree in Psychology from Nova Southeastern University in Florida, with honors.
