She is so sweet and helps me stay on track to meet my goals. After my appointment, I always feel more positive about my life and the future. She checks on me if I have to cancel my session, and will schedule me a new one if I forget. Her schedule is open and there is no waitlist as far as I can tell.

Maria has been a very strong coach in my corner of the ring of life. She has been very attentive to the things I'm asking for guidance with. She does an amazing job at bringing an out outside view to my problem, then gives me some tips and tricks to help me out in life. I greatly appreciate the support and guidance Maria has brought to my life.

I am so thankful that I was led to Maria during some big life losses. She was able to slow me down and show me the opportunities in life that we often forget about because they're too scary or too unknown. I feel like I'm leaving our time together with a better understanding of who I am and how I can navigate the rocks in the river of life. Thank you Maria!

I've been in therapy for more than 4 years. I've cycled through several therapists in and outside of BetterHelp and finally found Maria. Maria is the first therapist I've been with for more than a year. She saved my life, she saved my family. The amount of gratitude I have for Maria is endless. It would be difficult to ever see myself working with another therapist and I hope I never have to.

Two sessions and I’m thinking to myself that I don’t know how I white knuckled my way these last three years without a therapist. Recommend better help and providers like Maria to everyone I meet.

I had never had good experiences with psychologists until maria. She made me reflect over many things in my life and i think im improving baby steps by being heard and feeling that what i going through is a thing i can deal with.

Very experienced counselor . Maria understands the situation and always offers a very interesting perspective on things that can help you move on, and be more conscious about your own barriers, patterns and behaviors that can help you cope with the different challenges. I am a psychologist and needed someone like her, with all her wisdom and experience. Highly recoomended.

Estoy muy contento con la atención de Maria. La verdad me ayudó mucho y en poco tiempo. Ella sabe mucho del tema de la pérdida de un familiar querido y demas. Estoy muy agradecido por su ayuda. Ella fue mas alla de una terapeuta, una persona amable con la que se puede conversar y que sabe escuchar y comprender. La recomiendo totalmente. Muchas gracias pot todo!

I absolutely adore Maria. An amazing counseller, she really listens and makes you feel comfortable. She doesn’t judge and really pushes you to step out of your comfort zone. It was a pleasure to have her here for me.

I have only seen Maria Eijo once, but I have never connected with a counsellor the same way before. I left the appointment feeling better about myself. I felt heard, but most importantly I didn't leave the appointment feeling alone.
She also doesn't make me feel guilty when I miss an appointment which happens more than I would ever like to admit. When I miss an appointment, especially due to mental health, I usually find a new specialist because I feel horrible and embarrassed, but Mario is different. I cannot wait to speak with Maria next, and this is a huge deal for me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Maria has been a great help to me the last few months.
Her age and expertise are a real good fit for me, and I really like her can-do attitude.
Very happy I signed up and she was assigned to me :)

After the first few minutes into my first session with Maria, I felt at ease and comfortable to share and respond to her questions without inhibition. Her positivity and directness is much appreciated after experiences with previous therapists (prior to BetterHelp) who simply let me ramble without punctuation. In just one session she offered me actionable takeaways that have allowed me put direction to my self help.
Thank you, Maria!

Maria helped me turn my life around and taught me how to better manage my stress and anxiety. She helped me better understand what i was going through and how to cope with it in ways that worked for me. Maria makes you feel comfortable and is very empathetic, when youre talking to her it's as if youre talking to a friend. Would 100% recommend Maria over and over again! She changed my life!
