Great to meet you!

My name is Mariella and I am excited to join you on your therapy journey, wherever you may be at the time. I have experience working with diverse populations, including immigrant, bilingual (English/Spanish), LGBTQIA+, college students (non-traditional and international), adolescents, and families. My approach is eclectic and I adjust it according to my individual client. I have a humanistic and interpersonal approach that can sometimes include writing and other artistic outlets for creativity. I also often utilize CBT techniques to help clients gain an understanding of how thoughts are connected to emotions and behavior.

My approach to therapy

I believe in an intersectional and systems approach to therapy, especially given racial trauma and discriminatory actions taken towards BIPOC populations. I use a strength-based approach and work on empowering my clients to live their most authentic lives.

What you can expect from me

We can meet for a brief 15 minute consultation to discuss your goals and to see if we're a good fit.

I am licensed in CO, NY, MA, and WI. I can see clients that reside in any of these states.
