About Maria

Warm, collaborative,and never rushed.

Maria believes people already carry their strengths — sometimes they just need a calmer room to be seen again. She brings thirty years of experience, EMDR certification, and fluency in English and Spanish.

She sees couples on reconnection and repair. She sees individuals on anxiety, depression, and trauma. The pace is set by your nervous system, not a protocol.

What she treats

Three placeswe go together.

The same approach across every doorway: slow, attentive, paced by your nervous system.

Areas served

In-person sessions in Weston, FL and nearby Broward communities — Weston, Fort Lauderdale, Pembroke Pines, Davie, Plantation, Sunrise, Cooper City, and Miramar. Secure telehealth is available across the state of Florida.

I believe people already have what they need to heal. My work is to help you find it — gently, on your timeline, and with someone in the room who is not afraid of what's hard.
