About Maria

Maria Del Carmen Reyna is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who helps adults navigating trauma, chronic stress, and relationship challenges find greater stability and connection. She focuses on the ways past experiences shape current patterns - from overthinking and emotional exhaustion to difficulty trusting others and establishing boundaries - and guides clients through understanding how those survival strategies can keep them feeling stuck.

Her work is trauma-focused and relational, emphasizing gentle exploration of old wounds, attachment dynamics, and protective behaviors that once helped but may now limit growth. Maria blends compassionate listening with practical skill-building to support nervous system regulation, reduce anxiety symptoms, and increase clarity in decision-making. Sessions are aimed at helping clients feel more grounded in their bodies and more confident in their relationships and choices.

Throughout therapy she emphasizes collaboration and real-world tools, tailoring interventions to each person’s history and current needs. Her approach pairs insight into relational patterns with concrete strategies so clients can move from feeling on edge to experiencing more calm, agency, and clearer interpersonal connection.

Evidence-Informed Approaches and Remote Care

Maria integrates several evidence-informed approaches to help clients address stress, trauma, and relationship concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns of relatedness formed in early relationships and helps people understand how those patterns influence trust, boundaries, and closeness today; it can be especially helpful for abandonment, attachment issues, and family dynamics. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, offering a supportive space where the therapist follows the client’s lead to build insight and self-direction, which can benefit those struggling with self-esteem, emptiness, or identity questions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve coping, making it useful for stress, overthinking, and practical symptom relief.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Maria works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their history, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time as needs evolve. This collaborative stance helps ensure that therapy addresses both emotional healing and everyday functioning.

Online therapy offers flexibility to access care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and receive timely support from licensed professionals without the need to travel to an office.
