Maria Dias is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas (license number 104456) who brings 18 years of professional experience to her psychotherapy practice. She has worked with individuals and families since 2005 and is based in Texas.
She completed a Bachelor of Liberal Arts at Rutgers University with a double major in Psychology and Social Work, and went on to earn a Master of Social Work from New York University. Maria has continued to deepen her clinical skills through postgraduate training, including specialized work with adolescents and their families using evidence-based approaches, psychoanalytic training, hypnotherapy, and focused training in the treatment of panic and anxiety.
Maria values getting to know each person as an individual rather than fitting them into a single theoretical box. She uses an eclectic approach tailored to each client, offering a non-judgmental space to explore hopes, fears, and goals and to move toward change at a pace that suits the individual. Her practice addresses a range of concerns including stress and anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, parenting challenges, anger management, self-esteem, career difficulties, ADHD, and issues faced by LGBT clients and caregivers experiencing compassion fatigue.
Many people wonder whether working with a therapist online can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or adjusting to life changes, online therapy has been found to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One major benefit is flexibility - clients can choose the connection method that works best for them, whether that is a video call, a phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to integrate therapy into a busy schedule and maintain continuity of care.
Therapy delivered online is provided by licensed professionals and therapists, and clients have the option to switch providers if they feel a different fit would be better. For many people, remote sessions offer a practical and effective way to address everyday mental health and life concerns while fitting therapy into their routines.
