Hi, I’m Maria. I’m an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist passionate about supporting individuals and families as they heal, grow, and build stronger connections. I bring a calm, supportive presence to my sessions and strive to create a safe, compassionate space where clients can feel truly heard, understood, and free to be themselves.

I was born and raised in the Coachella Valley, and serving the community that shaped me is something I deeply value. As a bilingual therapist, fluent in both English and Spanish, I’m committed to honoring each client’s unique story and cultural background in the therapeutic process.

My experience includes working with diverse clients navigating depression, anxiety, life transitions, family challenges, and relationship issues. My goal is to walk alongside you with empathy and respect, helping you process difficult emotions, develop healthy coping strategies, and move toward balance, resilience, and growth.

Outside of my work, I enjoy my family and I love to learn - I am currently going to school for my doctorate degree.
