Hello and welcome! I'm Maureen, an intern therapist at Tiny Planet Counseling. My mission is to walk alongside adults and couples on their path to growth and healing. With a degree in Psychology, while pursuing my Master's in Social Work at Barry University, I'm deeply committed to providing trauma-informed care that sparks positive transformations.

I truly believe in the power of therapy, as it has changed my life. I approach each session with empathy and understanding. I recognize the profound impact of our past and present experiences on our lives. Creating a safe, nonjudgmental space is at the heart of what I do. We can explore your experiences within this space and pave the way for healing.

As a married woman of Caribbean heritage, I am passionate about supporting adult women, couples, and first-, second-, and third-generation immigrants as they navigate trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and life transitions.  I am also dedicated to working with women and couples who have faced trauma related to their spiritual journey. My fluency in Spanish allows me to connect with a diverse range of clients effectively.

I've had the privilege of assisting individuals and couples facing various challenges, and I firmly believe that therapy should be personalized to meet your unique needs. Every journey is different, and that's why I employ a variety of evidence-based techniques, including trauma-informed cognitive-behavioral therapy (TI-CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), internal family systems (IFS), Polyvagal theory, mindfulness, emotionally focused therapy (EFT), Gottman principles, attachment-focused therapy, and inner child work. These approaches are tailored to what works best for you.

I understand that taking the first step toward therapy can be intimidating, but please know that I'm here to support you every step of the way. Together, we'll navigate your past and present experiences, guiding you toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. Remember, you are not alone on this journey.
