Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical skill changes to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Maria works collaboratively to choose which methods fit the person’s goals and pace. She checks in about what’s working and adjusts techniques based on the client’s feedback and needs.
