Maria asked me the right questions to get me to open up and she really listened, which is what I needed. She was thoughtful and her advice gave me room for thought and the encouragement to move forward in a difficult situation.

Maria is a fantastic counselor. I appreciate the way she listened and actually heard what I said. I have had counselors where it seems like they’re just waiting to speak and that is not the feeling I get with Maria. She is intelligent, funny, and kind. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
