About Maria
Maria Wilson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Nevada and Indiana with 15 years of clinical counseling experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. Maria also works with parenting concerns, grief, eating issues, anger, bipolar symptoms, and compassion fatigue.
She uses practical, conversational sessions to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions are aimed at clear skills and short exercises clients can try between meetings. Maria emphasizes direct problem-solving alongside exploring what matters to each person.
Her background includes long-term work with children and families and many years supporting teens. That experience informs how she talks about parenting, fatherhood issues, adoption and foster care concerns, and family conflict. She also brings experience with issues like codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and domestic violence.
Maria lists Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Existential Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) among her approaches. She matches tools to the situation, using specific strategies for anxiety, mood, trauma processing, and building coping skills.
Practical logistics such as session structure and cost vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, interested people are asked to use the online matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
How her approaches are used in online sessions

CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors with short exercises. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes open listening and clear feedback to help people clarify their goals. DBT offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick approaches that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made and new challenges appear.
