About

Maria Del Carmen Reyna, LCSW, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who supports adults in California who feel persistently overwhelmed, on edge, or caught in patterns that are hard to change. Many people she works with describe overthinking, emotional exhaustion, difficulty trusting others, and challenges with boundaries - even when life appears "fine" from the outside. Her work is especially aligned with concerns like stress, anxiety, relationships and family dynamics, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem, along with related experiences such as abandonment and attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, caregiver stress, guilt and shame, and family-of-origin concerns.

Her therapy style is trauma-focused and relational, with attention to how earlier experiences can continue to shape present-day feelings, reactions, and choices. In sessions, she collaborates with clients to gently examine old wounds, long-standing survival strategies, and protective behaviors that may have once been necessary but now keep them feeling stuck or disconnected.

Maria’s approach is both compassionate and practical. She helps clients develop skills to steady the nervous system, ease anxiety, and strengthen clarity so they can feel more grounded in their bodies, more connected in relationships, and more confident in the decisions they make.

Maria Del Carmen Reyna integrates approaches that support adults working through stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and the effects of trauma. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds and past experiences can influence trust, closeness, and boundaries today, helping clients understand patterns that show up in family and partner relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact, offering structured ways to notice unhelpful thinking loops and practice more balanced responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful when emotions feel intense or hard to manage.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy, not a test to pass. Maria collaborates with clients to clarify what they want to change, what has or has not helped before, and what feels realistic for their daily lives. The pace and focus can be adjusted as goals become clearer over time.

Online therapy makes it easier to access support in the format that fits your schedule and comfort level. Sessions can take place through video calls or phone sessions, with additional options like live chat and text-based messaging for ongoing connection and flexibility between sessions.
