About Maria

Maria Reymundo brings a collaborative, strength-based approach to therapy rooted in practical tools and compassionate support. She centers work on building a strong alliance with each person and combines evidence-informed methods to design a treatment plan that fits individual needs.

Background and approach

Maria emphasizes trauma-informed care and skill-building so clients can move toward achievable goals and day-to-day improvements. With a Master’s in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago and a decade of direct clinical experience, Maria has provided services in settings such as inpatient psychiatry, community mental health, internal medicine, addiction treatment centers, and a university counseling center.

She holds LCSW and LICSW credentials and has worked with a broad range of diagnoses, with particular depth in depression, anxiety, trauma, and adjustment-related concerns. Bilingual in English and Spanish, Maria offers culturally sensitive care and draws from a variety of therapeutic principles including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT, client-centered strategies, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques.

She practices from Louisiana and focuses on empowering clients who are ready to engage in change and skill development.

Evidence-Informed Approaches Available Online

Maria often weaves Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy into online work. CBT focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood difficulties, while client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients feel heard and involved in setting goals.

She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when appropriate, offering practical tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that can support people coping with intense emotions or relationship stressors. These approaches are described and applied in straightforward, skills-based ways to address the concerns each person brings.

Finding the right fit is part of the therapeutic process, and Maria approaches that task collaboratively, adapting methods to match a client’s needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore which strategies feel most helpful and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care from different locations, and use formats that best support ongoing skill practice and check-ins.
