Maria Rojas, LMHC

Maria Rojas is a bilingual therapist who provides counseling in both English and Spanish. She is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with training in identifying and addressing a wide range of personal, social, and psychological challenges. Her work is client-centered and collaborative, combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based strategies, and other evidence-based interventions to help people make practical changes.

Maria focuses on building self-awareness, improving emotional regulation, strengthening coping skills, and developing effective problem-solving strategies. She has experience supporting adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, anger management concerns, chronic pain, and relationship difficulties. Her practice includes individual therapy, couples counseling, and marriage and family therapy, with attention to cultural responsiveness and relational well-being.

In sessions she aims to create a supportive environment where clients can explore patterns, process painful experiences, and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others. Maria blends structured techniques with mindful awareness to tailor treatment to each person’s needs and goals, and she works with clients to develop lasting tools for coping and growth.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Maria uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a structured approach that helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills to manage symptoms like anxiety and depression. CBT is often used for mood concerns, worries, and many everyday challenges where changing thought and behavior patterns can reduce distress.

She also integrates mindfulness-based strategies that teach present-moment awareness and techniques for calming the nervous system. Mindfulness can support emotion regulation, stress reduction, and improved responses after traumatic or painful experiences.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Maria collaborates with each client to determine which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as progress is made to ensure the best possible match.

Online therapy with licensed professionals and therapists offers practical flexibility - sessions by video call or phone make scheduling easier, while live chat and text-based messaging provide ongoing support between appointments. These options help people access consistent care from home or on the go and tailor communication to what feels most helpful.
