Maria Ward, LMFT

Maria Ward is a licensed therapist in the state of California with more than 13 years of professional experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, and the effects of abuse. She is certified in the Trauma Focus treatment modality and draws on that training when supporting individuals who have experienced traumatic events. Maria has worked with parents facing parenting challenges, couples and families seeking greater stability, and people managing anger, depression, mood shifts, and interpersonal difficulties.

She also has experience supporting clients who are coping with addictions and the complex emotions that accompany recovery. Maria centers her work on the belief that each person is the expert of their own story and that existing strengths are essential resources in moving through life’s difficulties. Her role is to listen, collaborate, and offer practical tools and skills to help clients meet their goals and manage daily challenges.

Taking the first step toward therapy often takes courage, and Maria emphasizes that beginning the process is itself an important milestone. She remains committed to offering steady support throughout the therapeutic journey and to helping clients build the skills they need to progress at their own pace.
