Maria earned her Master of Arts in Professional Counseling from Argosy University and Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Arizona State University. Maria is licensed by the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners as a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Licensed Independent Substance Abuse Counselor. She is trained in E.M.D.R. (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) which is an evidence based therapeutic modality which helps individuals to process adult and childhood traumas. Maria offers directive, insight-oriented therapy for individuals, couples, families, and groups recovering from painful life history and current difficulties, such as trauma and abuse; depression and anxiety; intimacy and connection; addictive behaviors and effects caused by others’ addictive behaviors; shame and guilt; grief and loss; and individuals who feel ‘stuck’ in old ways of thinking and behaving. She especially enjoys providing specialized therapy toward healing and restructuring to post-substance-abuse-treatment couples and families. In offering a safe, nurturing, therapeutic environment, Maria receives satisfaction in her work through witnessing her patients’ growth and personal empowerment. Maria was raised in Japan for most of her childhood and speaks fluent Japanese.
