Our First Conversation

Our first session is a conversation, not an intake form. I'll ask what brought you in, what you've already tried, and what you're hoping changes. We'll figure out together whether we're a fit; if I think someone else on the team would serve you better, I'll say so. From there, weekly 50-minute sessions are typical for the first few months. We'll check in periodically on what's working and recalibrate if something isn't. I send no homework you didn't agree to, and I don't grade you on between-session work — but I'll often suggest small experiments that move things forward faster than talk alone.

What You Can Count On From Me

The clients who've stayed longest tell me three things stand out. I track the throughline across sessions and bring it back into the room so a pattern you couldn't quite name becomes hard to miss. I push back when I think you're circling something rather than landing on it. And I treat fit as my problem to solve, not yours — if I think someone else on our team would serve you better, I'll say so before you've invested weeks finding out.

Who I’m Here For

My strongest fit is with adults in their 20s through 40s who look like they're handling life from the outside but feel persistently anxious, depleted, or disconnected underneath. That includes professionals running hot from burnout, partners working through the long aftermath of a rupture, and people processing grief or family-of-origin patterns showing up uninvited in adult relationships.


My Therapeutic Approach

I draw primarily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). With CBT, I'm less interested in worksheets and more interested in helping you notice the thoughts that drive the loop you're stuck in — and then experimenting with what changes when you respond differently. ACT adds the piece CBT alone can miss: defining what actually matters to you, and using that as the anchor when life pulls in other directions. For clients carrying trauma, I'm trained in EMDR and integrate it when it fits, with full transparency about what we're doing and why.

Treatment Methods

Solution-Focused

An evidence-informed therapeutic approach used by our providers. Ask your therapist how they integrate this method into your work together.

Relational

An evidence-informed therapeutic approach used by our providers. Ask your therapist how they integrate this method into your work together.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

ACT helps you accept difficult thoughts and feelings rather than fight them, while taking action aligned with your values. Particularly effective for anxiety, chronic pain, and depression.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps you identify thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and stress — then build skills to interrupt and change them. Highly effective and well-researched.

Interpersonal

An evidence-informed therapeutic approach used by our providers. Ask your therapist how they integrate this method into your work together.

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

Mindfulness-based approaches build present-moment awareness and a kinder relationship with your own thoughts. Often integrated with CBT or used as a standalone practice for anxiety and depression.

Person/Client-Centered Counseling

An evidence-informed therapeutic approach used by our providers. Ask your therapist how they integrate this method into your work together.

Note: Each session is 60 minutes, whether it’s your first consult or an ongoing visit.

About

Hello, my name is Maria Kamel-Delgado and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I received my Master’s in Marital Family Therapy and my Bachelor’s in Human Services from California State University, Dominguez Hills. In addition, I have two Associate’s degrees in Psychology and in Social and Behavioral Sciences. I have experience working with children, adolescents, individuals, and couples. I specialize in working with clients who struggle with symptoms of ADHD, depression, anxiety, and PTSD. I also have experience working with couples who are struggling with relational and communication issues. I like to create a warm and welcoming environment, to help make my clients feel as comfortable as possible opening up to me about their symptoms and difficulties in life. I feel it is my responsibility to advocate for my clients to provide them with the best resources and services possible. I treat all my clients with an overwhelming sense of unconditional positive regard, to help provide my clients with a safe space to speak freely without any fear of judgment. My treatment approach is based in Dialectical Behavior Therapy and is client centered, and strengths based.
