Maria Reymundo, LCSW, LICSW

Maria Reymundo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who uses a collaborative, client-centered style. She focuses on practical steps that help people move through stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions like a midlife crisis. Sessions are conversational and goal oriented so clients know what to expect each week.

She blends several approaches to tailor care to each person. Maria draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors. She uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and Solution-Focused methods to set small, achievable goals.

Maria earned a Master of Social Work from Loyola University Chicago and has ten years of direct clinical experience. Her background includes inpatient psychiatry, community mental health, internal medicine, addiction treatment centers, and a university counseling center. Those settings shaped her work with depression, anxiety, trauma, and adjustment concerns.

She practices with attention to cultural context and is bilingual in English and Spanish. Her experience includes working with multicultural populations both inside and outside the United States, and she pays attention to how culture and migration can shape relationships to stress, identity, and purpose.

In sessions she emphasizes strengths and practical skills. Clients collaborate on goals and learn tools for coping, communication, and managing mood. People seeking help with intimacy, family of origin issues, grief, or questions about life purpose often find this straightforward, skills-focused approach helpful.

How her approaches translate to online care

Maria blends Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in a straightforward way. Client-Centered Therapy means sessions focus on the client's priorities and experience, with the therapist listening closely and shaping support around what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice patterns of thinking that keep them stuck and practice new behaviors to feel better.

Finding the right approach is often part of early work. Maria collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts techniques as progress is made. That collaborative process helps decide how much skills practice, reflective conversation, or goal setting to include.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy weeks, reduce travel time, and allow concise check-ins when a full session is not possible. It can also let people continue with steady care during life transitions while working on communication, emotion regulation, or planning next steps.
