Embrace change
Hi I'm Maria
I'm on a mission to empower individuals to create the change they've been searching for. To move away from feeling stuck, unworthy, and disconnected from themselves and others and into a place of confidence and empowerment. Together, we'll identify and overcome the obstacles holding you back in order to ignite your journey forward. Using different evidence-based practices, my ultimate goal is to provide you with the tools and strategies needed to hop into the driver's seat of your life, fearlessly pursue your deepest desires and unlock your true potential for lasting change.
A little about me
Prior to diving into the mental health space, I worked as a middle-school teacher and a registered yoga teacher. I combined my expertise and founded a yoga club to help students who were having behavior problems in the class. This led me to earn my Masters in Mental Health Counseling and since then gained experience working with children, teens, parents, adults, and couples. I now specialize in: anxiety, depression, trauma, and fertility and postpartum issues.
Miami has always been my home. When I am not working as a therapist, you'll find me enjoying the warm weather at a park or beach with my growing family: two adorable pups, a delicious baby boy, and my supportive husband. At home, you'll find me immersed in a good book, rewatching my favorite show, or planning my next hiking trip.
Let's work together
