About Maria
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Virginia with 22 years of experience, Maria Caballero focuses on stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, and parenting issues. She speaks English and Spanish and works directly with people facing everyday pressures and bigger life changes.
Maria uses attachment-based and client-centered approaches alongside cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior methods. In sessions she listens for patterns in relationships and reactions, then helps people try concrete changes they can practice between meetings. She also uses mindfulness techniques to reduce overwhelming feelings and improve focus.
Her work often involves talking through family of origin issues, family problems, and immigration-related stress. Maria addresses grief, sleeping problems, compassion fatigue, and mood concerns in straightforward sessions that balance reflection and skills practice.
People bring a range of struggles, from workplace stress and career choices to relationship strain and questions about life purpose or midlife transitions. She also supports those processing prejudice, discrimination, sexual assault and post-traumatic stress, always attending to cultural and multicultural factors.
Sessions are organized around the client's goals. Maria helps set short-term steps and monitors progress in plain language. Her style centers on clear reasoning, practical tools, and steady follow-through to help people cope and move forward.

Approaches used in remote sessions and how they help
Attachment-based work looks at how current relationships repeat patterns from early life and helps people notice and change those interactions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person can find their own solutions and clarify goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) identifies unhelpful thoughts and teaches specific skills to shift behavior and reduce anxiety and low mood.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Maria will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That decision is based on what someone wants to change, what feels practical for them, and how they respond in the first few sessions.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list formats explicitly. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or offering sessions without being on camera. These practical options can help maintain continuity of care and make skill practice between sessions more manageable.
