About Maria
Maria Concepcion is a Florida licensed mental health counselor (FL LMHC) with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and helps people cope with life changes and addiction-related family problems. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she combines practical tools with conversational interaction.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a primary method to help people notice and change unhelpful thought patterns. Sessions are straightforward and direct. Conversation feels informal rather than clinical, and clients are asked to take an active role between sessions through messaging and brief assignments.
Maria also draws on attachment-informed ideas to look at how early family patterns show up now. That makes her a resource for people who want to understand family of origin issues and how they affect current relationships. She frames these patterns in plain terms and points out specific behaviors and reactions to examine.
Her approach blends acceptance and action. She encourages people to identify values and then practice small, doable steps that align with those values. Practical coping skills for anxiety, anger, sleep, and substance-related family strain are part of the work.
Maria may include spiritual reflection when clients request it, referring to the God of the client's understanding. The work involves both talking in session and active work between sessions to reinforce change.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps that reflect those values. It can help when someone wants to move forward despite uncomfortable thoughts or feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It uses practical exercises and short assignments to change unhelpful thinking and improve mood, sleep, and anxiety symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to choose which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and may combine approaches over time based on how the client responds.
Confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also allow a client to use messaging between sessions and complete assigned exercises as part of regular work on family patterns and coping skills.
