Maritza Veliz

With a master's degree in clinical psychology and 15 years of clinical experience with children, adolescents and adult populations, I’m passionate about helping clients navigate life’s challenges with compassion, clarity, and practical tools. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful change at your own pace. I have experience treating mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, life transitions, stress, grief and relationship concerns.

My therapeutic approach is holistic, person-centered, and trauma-informed, grounded in the belief that healing happens when clients feel safe and understood. I integrate Cognitive Behavioral and solution-focused techniques to help clients build insight, improve coping skills and challenge unhelpful thought patterns while honoring each person's unique experiences and strengths.

During the intake session, clients can expect to establish a safe, comfortable connection while reviewing their history and presenting problems. We will work collaboratively to develop goals for treatment.
