Maria de los Angeles Vargas - Cancel, LCSW
Bilingual. Change is one of the few constants in life. but we all have been in a place where a "change" on how we relate, reason and think... has been easier said than done. When was the last time that you looked into you? As a fellow human being, I know that feeling vulnerable can be unbearable. I believe that we all deserve to be seen and heard, without judgements. Find in me an ally, I truly enjoy listening to people and empower them to find in therapy a safe space and meaning of their life "story". I also offer flexible scheduling options after-hours and weekends.
