The goal in sessions is practical growth and self-awareness. Maricela supports clients in naming their strengths and using those strengths to move past obstacles. She emphasizes collaboration and respects that each person is the expert on their life.
Clients can expect a respectful, steady presence and straightforward techniques they can try between meetings. She offers services in English and Spanish and practices in California as an LCSW.
