Maria Concepcion , LMHC

Maria Concepcion is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 13 years of clinical experience. She brings a compassionate, dedicated, and direct approach to therapy, helping people address stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and the many life changes that can feel overwhelming.

Maria often works with individuals coping with family members or friends who misuse substances, offering guidance around codependency and healthier coping strategies. She draws on practical, evidence-informed tools to help clients shift unhelpful thought patterns and emotional responses, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a primary foundation. CBT is presented in a straightforward, skill-focused way so clients can apply new ways of thinking and behaving between sessions.

Therapy with Maria is collaborative and active - she partners with clients to create a personalized plan and encourages participation through messaging and brief between-session activities to identify patterns that influence behavior. Her style aims to feel relaxed and conversational while remaining goal-oriented and results-focused. She also incorporates spiritual reflection when clients request it, supporting personal growth and intimacy with the God of the client’s understanding.

Maria welcomes prospective clients to review voluntary feedback from past clients and to learn more about how her practical, collaborative approach may fit their needs.
