About Maria

Maria Isaza is a Florida-licensed clinical social worker who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, and self-esteem struggles. She uses straightforward talk and practical steps to help people feel more capable. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and aim to be calm and focused.

She listens first and then helps clients name what feels hardest. Conversations are direct but warm. The goal is to leave each session with at least one small, usable idea to try between meetings.

Background and approach

Maria uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. She helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test new ways of responding. This approach is useful for worry, social anxiety, and workplace stress.

Her practice also covers relationship stress, career concerns, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. She works with people who want to build self-love, practice forgiveness, or address sexuality and women’s issues. Young adult concerns and social phobia are also within her focus areas.

Clients can expect a practical, collaborative style. Maria offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their routine. She has three years of clinical experience as an LCSW and brings that background to everyday problems.

To start, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, with cost varying by location and therapist availability.

How CBT and online sessions fit together

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people see connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short exercises and practice tasks to test new ways of thinking and behaving, which can reduce worry and social anxiety over time.

Maria pairs this with a straightforward, problem-solving approach that targets stress, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. She works collaboratively to choose techniques that match a person’s goals and daily life, adjusting the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions make it easier to keep therapy consistent. Video calls let people talk face-to-face when a fuller conversation is helpful. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, homework questions, and quick coping reminders between longer meetings. These options help therapy fit into work, family, and busy schedules while keeping the focus on practical change.
