Maria Concepcion, LMHC

Maria Concepcion creates a session atmosphere that aims to feel like a relaxed conversation with a friend, encouraging openness and ease while addressing mental health concerns. She blends compassion with directness to provide practical support and guidance tailored to each individual's goals.

She is an LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) with 13 years of clinical experience and practices from Florida. Her work focuses on helping people who struggle with stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties that arise at home, in social settings, or at work. She also supports those seeking stronger coping skills when dealing with family members or friends who abuse substances and with issues related to co-dependency.

Using insightful, hands-on tools and informative interaction, she primarily draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) - a method that helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors - to address patterns that influence emotions and actions. Her approach emphasizes collaboration, concrete strategies, and measurable steps toward change.

Therapy with Maria Concepcion is designed to be active rather than purely conversational; clients are asked to participate outside of sessions through messaging and structured assignments so patterns of thinking and feeling can be recognized and reshaped. She also has professional experience offering spiritual guidance and reflection to foster personal growth and intimacy with the God of a client's understanding. Past clients have voluntarily shared comments about their results, reflecting the outcomes they experienced. Her practice centers on dedication, practicality, and a direct collaborative style that supports meaningful progress.
