About Maria
LMHC in Florida with seven years of experience, Maria Galvez focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She speaks English and Spanish. Maria meets with teenagers and adults to talk through practical problems and build coping skills.
Maria uses straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and everyday challenges. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that keep problems going and learning clear steps to change them. She aims for short, usable strategies the client can try between meetings.
Her work also addresses aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, and communication problems. She helps people who feel isolated or stuck, and those dealing with guilt, shame, or control issues. Young adult concerns and women’s issues are part of her practice as well.
Maria pays attention to the effects of trauma, including post-traumatic stress, and supports people recovering from abuse. She offers support for social anxiety and phobia, and for those rebuilding self-love and life purpose after hard times.
Practical matters are part of the plan. Sessions look at daily routines, problem-solving, and small experiments to test new ways of coping. Clients who prefer Spanish can work in that language. Before booking, confirm current session options and scheduling details.

How Maria uses evidence-based approaches in online work
Maria draws on clear, evidence-based techniques that focus on skill building and problem solving. Cognitive approaches help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking; these methods are often used for anxiety, depression, and social fears. Behavioral strategies involve setting small practice tasks and routine changes to reduce avoidance and improve daily functioning. She also integrates trauma-informed methods to address the effects of abuse and post-traumatic stress. That work concentrates on stabilizing symptoms, improving coping, and gradually addressing distressing memories when the person feels ready. The therapist discusses options and pacing with each person before moving forward. Finding the right method is part of the work. Maria collaborates with clients to choose approaches that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques based on what helps most. Confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commute time, and allow quick check-ins when needed.
