Couples and Individual Therapy in St. Louis
Therapy to help you build the life you want to live.
Life is a bit disappointing.
Whether it is self-esteem, anxiety, OCD, or relational pain, things have gotten pretty tough.
-
Your thoughts are always racing, and the constant overanalyzing is paralyzing. Your sleep, relationships, and happiness have taken a toll.
-
When you start to consider certain events from your past, your heart starts racing. The feelings you've been stuffing feel too terrifying to deal with.
-
You keep having the same fights over and over again, and each time, they get a little worse. You both feel lonely and lost, and you are out of ideas.
I’m maria.
I believe you make sense and I believe things can change.
I love working with individuals and couples who working through anxiety, OCD, and relationship conflict.
I come from a background with some wacky and dismissive views on mental health, so I know personally some of the obstacles that may be preventing you from the change that you need. Your over-analyzing, intrusive thoughts, conflicted spirituality, and frustrated sexuality are all safe—and belong—in the room with me.
How I can help
I specialize in therapy for lasting change.

The “what-ifs”, intrusive thoughts, and obsessions about contamination or moral failure have become all consuming. And the behaviors you use to make the panic and anxiety go away are time-consuming and sometimes harmful. Together, we will work to understand your particular patterns and regain control over your mind. Learn more.
