Hello, my name is Maria Marinero. I am a Licensed Associate Counselor in Phoenix, AZ. It takes courage to reach out and start the process and I am here to remind you that you don’t have to do it alone. I love people and believe in meeting you where you are in your journey and walking alongside you as you actively pursue healing. I provide a safe, genuine, empathetic space to help you explore the places you feel stuck and process through difficult experiences that have had an impact on your life today.
As an LAC, I have 7+ years of experience working with clients. In particular, my expertise is working with women and people who have faced unique challenges, such as domestic violence, sexual assault, also issues related to self-esteem and trauma. I use Trauma Focused CBT, DBT techniques EMDR and a Narrative approach.
Remember that seeking support is a sign of strength, and reaching out for help is an important step towards self-care and personal well-being. You deserve to live a fulfilling and meaningful life, and I am here to support you on that journey.
