Background and approach
Sessions are tailored to each person's needs rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan. Her approach draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to address unhelpful thoughts and build calmer daily habits. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and notice progress quickly.
When past harms affect current well-being, she integrates trauma-focused ideas to work through difficult memories at a manageable pace. Maricsa emphasizes collaboration. She works with clients to choose strategies that fit their life and values.
Expect practical tools, homework that matters, and straightforward feedback you can use between sessions. People come to her for help with caregiver stress, communication problems, finding life purpose, and challenges many women face. She also supports young adults navigating transitions into fuller independence.
Approaches that fit online care
Maricsa uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, and low self-esteem because it breaks problems into manageable parts and teaches practical coping skills.She also draws on mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and increase calm. Mindfulness helps with everyday stress and supports emotional regulation when situations feel overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Maricsa will discuss your goals and preferences and adapt methods as you try them. She aims to blend techniques so the work feels relevant and achievable for each person.
Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video lets you work face to face when time and bandwidth allow. Phone sessions can be a good option when you need a quieter check-in or have lower bandwidth. Messaging and live chat support shorter check-ins, homework guidance, and ongoing momentum between scheduled meetings.
