I’m Maria, a Provisional Psychologist originally from Chile, where I trained and worked as a psychologist before moving to Australia.
I love working with adolescents and adults who might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or simply trying to understand themselves a little better. I have a particular interest in emotional regulation and neurodivergence.
I’m warm, curious and down to earth, and I like therapy to feel human, practical and genuinely tailored to you.


Philosophy and Vision

I believe therapy should be collaborative, individualised and meaningful. I aim to provide a warm and respectful space where clients can better understand their experiences, develop practical skills and work towards meaningful change at their own pace.


Quality Provision

My practice is guided by evidence-based psychological principles, ethical practice and ongoing professional development. I engage in regular supervision and reflective practice, and adapt interventions according to each client's needs, goals and progress.


Therapy Approach

I use an integrative approach, primarily drawing from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and DBT-informed strategies. My approach is flexible and collaborative, combining practical strategies with an understanding of each client's individual experiences, strengths and goals.
