Maria Duran, MACP, RP (Qualifying)

About Maria

I believe each of us has a unique set of strengths and qualities that make us special, powerful, and capable of growth. When we feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from ourselves or others around us, it’s easy to lose sight of these qualities and even forget what makes life meaningful to us. As a therapist, my goal is to walk alongside you on your self-discovery and healing journey, supporting you in the process of reconnecting with what is most valuable to you and embracing the unique strengths that make you who you are.

I strive to create a safe, collaborative, and empathetic space where my clients feel heard and validated. Together, we work on strengthening their relationship with themselves and those they care about most in life. Using an eclectic approach, I tailor therapy to meet clients’ unique needs, helping them build tools and skills to achieve their goals.

Your courage in taking this step toward personal growth is admirable, and I’d be honoured to join you on this path! If you have questions or would like to see if we are a good fit, feel free to reach out for a free 15-minute consultation. I look forward to supporting you as you take this important step toward healing and growth!

Therapy with Maria

In our first session, we’ll talk about your life history and the concerns or topics that brought you to therapy. If you are not comfortable talking about some topics in our initial session, that’s completely understandable! We can simply skip them. By the end of the session, we’ll work together to identify your goals for therapy. From there, we’ll focus on addressing those goals and practicing strategies to help you live life in a way that aligns with your true desires.
