About Maria

Maria Concepcion is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 13 years of practice helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She aims for conversations that feel relaxed and familiar, so clients can speak openly. Sessions blend practical tools with straightforward guidance.

She offers services in English and Spanish and practices from Florida. Her work often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and shift behavior. She asks clients to try exercises between sessions and to use messaging to track progress.

Background and approach

This active approach is meant to make change happen outside the therapy hour as well as during it. Maria also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early connections shape current relationships and intimacy. She helps people notice patterns such as codependency, abandonment fears, and difficulties with trust so they can try new ways of relating.

She supports people facing life transitions, caregiving stress, addiction concerns, sleep or eating struggles, and workplace pressure. Her background includes work with trauma and family-of-origin issues, and she incorporates emotionally focused and acceptance-based strategies when they fit. Sessions combine direct feedback, evidence-informed exercises, and opportunities for spiritual reflection if a client requests it.

Maria emphasizes collaboration: she and the client plan goals, track steps, and adjust strategies as needed. The approach aims to be practical, personal, and steady.

Online support

Approaches that translate well to online care

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can help people notice clinginess, avoidance, or trust issues and practice new responses in real time. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, teaches skills to notice difficult thoughts and commit to values-based actions; it suits people coping with anxiety, depression, or life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to change them, which clients can complete between sessions.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those aims. Work is collaborative: goals are set together, progress is reviewed, and strategies are adjusted as needed.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction and demonstrations, phone calls use less bandwidth, chat can be a quick check-in, and messaging supports ongoing notes or short updates. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy days.
