About Maria
Maria Concepcion is a Florida LMHC with 13 years of experience helping people who struggle with stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She meets people in a direct, conversational way and focuses on clear, practical steps. Sessions include discussion, brief exercises, and tasks between meetings to keep progress moving.
She commonly works with issues that appear at home, at work, and in social situations. That includes social anxiety and phobia, coping with family members who use substances, intimacy and communication struggles, and mood-related concerns. Maria also supports people coping with life changes, grief over family dynamics, and problems with sleep or eating.
Her main clinical approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She uses CBT techniques to identify thought patterns and to practice new ways of thinking and behaving. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas when they fit a person's needs.
Maria expects active participation. Between sessions she asks people to try short assignments and to use messaging when needed to track progress. She describes the work as collaborative and straightforward, aiming to change unhelpful thinking and build better coping skills.
She can offer sessions in English and Spanish. Maria's practice notes she provides spiritual reflection when clients request it, framed around each person's beliefs. To get started, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the site's online options.
How therapy approaches are used in online sessions
Maria uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. CBT gives short, practical exercises and homework to practice between sessions, which can fit well into a weekly rhythm.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on noticing thoughts and building actions that match personal values. Attachment-Based ideas can help when relationship patterns and early connections affect current behavior and feelings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they choose techniques and adjust them as needed, so sessions match the person's pace and needs.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - shorter check-ins can be scheduled for a break at work, messaging can support practice between sessions, and video or phone options may reduce travel time. Ask about formats when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match your schedule and daily routine.
