Maria's positive approach pointing out the differences between men and women was enlightening and really helpful. We have both learnt so much and look forward to spending many more happy years together. Thank you Maria.

Being a parent is not easy! Our teenage daughter was having trouble coming to terms with close family bereavement and lack of self esteem. Her way of dealing with it was to become withdrawn and moody. As parents you try to do your best to help them through what they are feeling but sometimes you need to reach out to get support. Thank goodness we reached out to Maria! After a few sessions with Maria our daughter is so much more happier, confident and self aware. She has helped her understand where her issues have come from and how to deal with her negative thoughts. She is very much back in the family and able to deal with things that otherwise would have triggered her angry side. Maria has given her the confidence to face what life brings up and deal with it in a calm and thoughtful way. Wish we had reached out to MDS earlier! Our daughter sees Maria as her 3rd nana. Maria has such a lovely way with people, a real gift. Highly recommend Maria to any parent struggling to support their teenager in this crazy world of ours!

After 2 or 3 years of being unhappy, living separate lives, and hanging in there for the sake of our young daughter, we decided to reach out to Maria for a last ditch attempt to save our marriage so we could say we had tried every possible thing to make it work. We signed up for the peace and joy program, and I can honestly say it was the best thing we have ever done. With Maria’s help it has transformed our marriage, and we are the happiest we have been since I can remember. Maria is warm, kind, understanding and fair. She puts you at ease from the minute you walk through the door. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Maria, we couldn’t have done this without you. And we will be forever grateful.

Working with Maria for 8 weeks has been an absolute pleasure. Although the sessions were very emotional, Maria helped me change my mindset on how to have better relationships with family members moving forward. She also taught me to accept people for who they are and she helped me with breathing techniques and nonviolent communication skills. I was sent hypnotherapy tapes to listen to at my leisure. These were calming. I am relieved and so happy for her guidance in life skills and her outstanding knowledge. I have more confidence with how I can live my life moving forward. Maria is friendly, calm and she shares her own experiences. In previous times of counselling I seem to just talk and talk but with Maria it’s a two way conversation, she is a gem and anybody that is looking to grow in their personal life or feels anxious or depressed, please reach out and contact her.

I recently had the privilege of seeking help from Maria during difficult time in my life, and I can’t recommend her enough. From the moment I stepped into her office, I felt welcomed and at ease. Maria's extensive experience and training were evident. She took the time to understand my unique needs and tailored her approach accordingly. Her blend of cognitive-behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices resonated with me. Maria is an exceptional listener. She allowed me to express my thoughts without interruption, allowed me to be myself, cry and express everything at my own pace. Her empathetic responses made me feel understood and validated. We set clear goals together, Maria consistently guided our sessions toward achieving those objectives. Her structured approach helped me track my progress and stay motivated. Maria accommodated my schedule by offering weekend appointments. Her responsiveness to urgent matters outside of sessions was reassuring and very helpful! She maintained professional boundaries while still showing genuine care. Confidentiality was a priority, and I appreciated her commitment to ethical standards. Thanks to Maria's guidance, I’ve seen significant improvements in managing anxiety and stress. Her practical strategies have become valuable tools in my life. Maria is a compassionate, skilled therapist who genuinely cares about her clients’ well-being. If you’re seeking effective therapy, I highly recommend scheduling an appointment with her.
