How her approaches shape online sessions
Maria commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in session. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the client's views and priorities, letting the client guide what matters most to work on.She also uses Motivational Interviewing when people want help finding motivation for change. That approach focuses on exploring ambivalence and building internal reasons to take action. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process; the therapist will work with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences.
