About Maria
Maria Rojas is a bilingual clinician who offers counseling in English and Spanish. She practices as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and she draws on eight years of experience helping people with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship concerns. Her style is warm and direct, with a focus on practical steps people can use right away.
Maria uses clear, structured methods to help clients name their problems and learn new ways to cope.
Background and approach
She teaches emotion regulation skills and helps people build healthier communication habits. Sessions often include straightforward exercises and at-home practices that reinforce progress between meetings. She pays attention to how attachment and past losses shape current reactions.
That means working through issues like abandonment, guilt and shame, and isolation in ways that connect the past to the present. Maria also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, control struggles, and challenges after divorce or separation. Her approach adapts to each person.
She helps people spot patterns, try new behaviors, and measure what works. When trauma and post-traumatic stress are present, she combines stabilizing skills with gradual exposure to reduce overwhelm. Clients who prefer a bilingual therapist or need flexible session formats will find her practical and steady.
Maria offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.
How therapeutic approaches adapt to online care
Maria draws from evidence-based techniques that focus on helping people change unhelpful thoughts and develop steady self-management skills. One common method she uses is cognitive behavioral work, which helps people identify negative thought patterns and practice new responses to reduce anxiety and depression. She also integrates mindfulness-based strategies that teach attention and calming exercises to manage stress and emotional overwhelm.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Maria will listen to your goals and preferences, try methods that fit your situation, and adjust over time based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist work together to track progress and shift strategies when needed.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this work. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill demonstrations and real-time feedback. Phone sessions are useful when video is not feasible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions, send brief updates, or use short exercises during a busy day. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work and family routines while still using evidence-based techniques.
