About Maria
Maria Reymundo brings a collaborative, client-centered orientation to therapy, blending practical skills training with trauma-informed sensibilities. She emphasizes a strong therapeutic alliance as the foundation for change and works alongside clients to set realistic goals and build strengths that support lasting progress.
Background and approach
Her practice draws from multiple evidence-informed methods to tailor treatment to each person's needs while prioritizing skill development and emotional safety. With a Master’s in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago and a decade of clinical experience, Maria has delivered care across inpatient psychiatry, community mental health, internal medicine, addiction treatment centers, and a university counseling setting.
She is licensed as an LCSW and LICSW and focuses on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy challenges, addiction, grief, eating and body image concerns, and mood disorders including bipolar. She also addresses attachment, communication and family of origin issues, multicultural concerns, immigration-related matters, and coping with life transitions.
Bilingual in English and Spanish, Maria practices in Louisiana and integrates strengths-based and solution-focused elements to create personalized treatment plans. She invites those ready to begin change to collaborate on a path toward greater coping, insight, and wellbeing.
Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care
Maria frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and develop practical behavior changes; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day coping challenges. She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for strong emotions and relationship-related difficulties.
Choosing the right method is part of the therapeutic process, and Maria approaches that choice collaboratively. She listens to each person's goals, preferences, and life context and then adapts techniques so the work fits the client rather than expecting the client to fit a single model. That collaborative process can include blending CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies when appropriate.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to access licensed professionals from varied locations and schedules. These options can make it easier to maintain consistency in care, practice new skills between sessions, and adapt to changing life demands while working toward meaningful change.
