About Maria

Maria Lozano is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and coping with life changes. Maria also supports people who are managing relationship and family concerns, compassion fatigue, and self-esteem struggles.

She uses a mix of practical methods in sessions. Clients can expect clear conversation about patterns that started in childhood and how those patterns show up now. Maria leans on Client-Centered techniques to listen and reflect, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thinking and behavior patterns, and mindfulness practices to help with grounding and focus.

Her background includes work across mental health and reproductive health contexts, and she has supported perinatal concerns such as postpartum depression and pregnancy-related stress. She has also worked with people facing domestic violence, immigration-related separation, and multicultural challenges. Sessions can include somatic awareness and simple embodied practices when relevant.

Maria speaks English and Spanish. She aims to help people recognize repeated family roles and expectations and to develop practical strategies for change. Therapy sessions focus on small, manageable steps - clearer communication, coping tools for strong emotions, and ways to reduce relentless worry.

People looking to start are encouraged to review online therapy options and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. Online sessions using this approach let clients talk through family patterns and feel heard, while the therapist offers questions that clarify concerns and goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors. In virtual meetings CBT can be used to identify unhelpful thinking, try short experiments between sessions, and build step-by-step coping plans for anxiety, depression, or relationship tensions.

Mindfulness Therapy brings gentle attention to breath and bodily sensations. Online sessions can introduce short mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity and improve concentration, which can be helpful for stress, grief, and perinatal mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Maria will collaborate with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts methods over time based on what is helpful in sessions and in daily life.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from quieter surroundings without travel. These practical benefits often help people keep therapy consistent alongside parenting, work, or medical appointments.
