Maritza Ejenbaum, LCSW

Maritza Ejenbaum is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 36 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel stuck by offering practical tools and steady support. Her work emphasizes respect, collaboration, and building trust so clients can make meaningful changes in their lives.

She helps people manage stress so it does not control their day. She teaches skills for anxiety and depression and addresses addictive behaviors and relationship pain. Her approach also includes helping people understand how early life events affect current feelings and choices.

Maritza adapts therapy to each person rather than using a single method for everyone. She draws on attachment-focused thinking to look at relationship patterns and on client-centered work to follow each person’s pace and priorities. Cognitive-behavioral techniques are used when useful to change unhelpful thoughts and habits.

Her practice includes work with a wide range of concerns such as grief, intimacy-related issues, ADHD, career questions, and midlife transitions. She has experience with multicultural and LGBT concerns and supports people from diverse backgrounds.

Therapy begins with a short matching process and scheduling based on the therapist’s availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and scheduling. Maritza works in North Carolina and offers services in both English and Spanish.

Approaches that shape online work and progress

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people see why they react a certain way in close relationships and offers ways to change those patterns for better connection.

Client-centered therapy focuses on following the person’s lead. The therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and helps people find their own solutions at a comfortable pace.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into smaller parts to change them. It suits stress, anxiety, depression, and situations where learning specific skills can help day-to-day life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods as needed. That collaboration helps make sure sessions match each person’s needs.

Confirm current session options before booking since the profile does not list specific formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and let people connect from familiar surroundings. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins or phone-based work when camera use or long blocks of time are impractical.
