About Maura
As a compassionate and empathetic Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate difficult and distressing life experiences such as coping with substance use disorders, depression and anxiety, dysfunctional relationships, intimate partner violence, anger management, and a specialty in end-of-life care and the grief process. I provide support and guidance during transitional times by helping people work through the emotional hardships of grief, develop insight into influence of past experiences on present-day behaviors and relationships, adjust to a new reality, rebuild their lives, and explore self-identity to improve quality of life. I am trained in and able to utilize various therapeutic treatment modalities and work from a holistic, person-centered, and strengths-based perspective to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment; walking through the process of healing and transformation towards the authentic self requires companionship. I believe that acknowledging and accepting inner emotions is a vital step in one’s commitment to understanding and changing their behavior. With a decade of experience in the counseling field and as a medical social worker, I am trained in various therapeutic treatment modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Short-Term Psychodynamic Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I have developed support group curriculums and led workshops that cater to diverse populations and their unique needs. I hold active, unrestricted Clinical Social Work licenses in the states of Florida, Colorado, & South Carolina. Read more Show less
