My name is Mary, I go by "Maria". I have been working in mental health nursing for the past 8 years, and nursing in general for the past 22 years. My greatest joy is connecting with my patients at a human level and helping them realize the strengths within themselves to achieving a more calm and peaceful life. My style of engaging with patients is holistic. I believe in meeting the needs of the mind, the body and soul, for a more fulfilled existence. My clients can expect to feel more hopeful, understood, and empowered after a session with me. I have extensive experience working at an in-patient psychiatric hospital treating the persistently mentally ill individuals, as well as working out-patient, providing short-term mental health treatment. My specialty is treating mood disorders like Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar, Mania and other brain disorders like Schizophrenia and Schizoaffective disorder. I am currently taking new patients in OR & WA.
