Hi, my name is Maria Clark. I am a licensed mental health therapist, LIMHP. I help people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, ADHD, grief and life transitions by creating a space where they feel safe and seen. I specialize in helping adolescents, adults, families and couples. I believe therapy should feel like a supportive conversation—a two-sided dialogue with room for reflection, self assessment, healing, and growth.
My approach is specific to the individualized need of each client and is collaborative. My approach combines warmth, compassion, and evidence-based therapies like CBT and Emotionally Focused Therapy, helping individuals cope with the challenges they may face. My work blends acceptance, guidance, and therapeutic techniques to foster grounded, meaningful change.
I support children, adolescents, adults, and seniors navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress management challenges, including panic disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and sleep disorders. I work with individuals experiencing grief and bereavement, end of life issues, infertility, chronic conditions such as diabetes, and other health-related disabilities that impact emotional well-being. My practice also supports clients living with bipolar disorder (also known as manic depressive illness), attention deficit disorder (ADD/ADHD), eating disorders, alcohol and substance abuse concerns, anger management and impulse control difficulties, and complex family or relationship issues.
I provide affirming care around identity development, cultural and ethnic issues, women’s issues, men’s issues, maternal mental health including prepartum and postpartum transitions, and LGBTQ+ concerns, including support for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender individuals. Whether you are navigating major life transitions, managing chronic stress, or working through long-standing patterns, therapy can be a space to build insight, strengthen coping skills, and move toward greater stability and self-understanding.
In the first session, I hope to build rapport and provide a safe place for the individual to express feelings and concerns. I will provide support and understanding , empowering the client to set the pace and to establish short and long term goals. This will help the client find strength and clarity in order to move forward in life and their relationships in a healthy positive manner.
