More about Maria

  • 8 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCPC

As a licensed therapist in Illinois, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My approach centers on helping clients develop deeper self-understanding, heal relationship dynamics, and cultivate personal resilience. I have extensive experience addressing challenges like social anxiety, communication difficulties, self-esteem struggles, and trauma recovery.

My therapeutic work focuses on creating a compassionate, affirming space where clients can explore their inner experiences and develop meaningful strategies for personal growth. I'm particularly passionate about supporting individuals working through family conflicts, isolation, and life transition challenges.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, I collaborate with clients to unpack patterns of shame, guilt, and self-criticism while building stronger communication skills and self-compassion. My goal is to empower you to reconnect with your inherent worth, establish healthier boundaries, and move toward a more authentic, purposeful life.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
