Cypress Psychotherapy and Consulting PLLC
Dr. Felix-Ortiz (Maria): I have specialized training in substance abuse treatment, and in managing anxiety and mood disorders. I worked with many college students, people struggling with end-of-life issues, law enforcement/first responders, trans* and other people in LGBTIQ+ communities. I earned a PhD from UCLA’s clinical psychology program, worked as a clinical psychology fellow at Langley Porter Psychiatric Institute and Zuckerberg General Hospital in San Francisco. I am Puerto Rican, using she/her pronouns, and Spanish speaking.
THERAPY
In our work together, we can use guided relaxation, question and change the beliefs and thinking habits that sabotage your wellness and success, and work on writing a new story to help you better cope with past trauma. We can also use variations of ecotherapy as appropriate. The initial "getting to know each other" session (30 min) is free and I accept online payments.
