Maria Vaquerano

Hi, I’m Maria Vaquerano, LCSW, with 14 years of experience providing therapy to children and families. I specialize in helping individuals navigate life transitions, adjustment challenges, and grief & loss. My approach is gentle Christian Cognitive Behavioral Therapy counseling, focused on reshaping unhealthy thought patterns into healthier, faith-informed beliefs that support growth and healing. I deeply value listening to your unique voice and therapy goals. Through integrative practices that are personalized, I am passionate about guiding you toward renewed perspective, emotional wellness, and a meaningful sense of life purpose. I believe seeking counseling is a healthy and courageous step, especially during life transitions, some exciting, others overwhelming, and yet at times, transitions come with devasting grief and loss. My aim is to help you gain new perspective and feel supported during seasons of change. I kindly invite you to call me for a complimentary, brief 10-15 minute consultation to explore if we are a good fit. Specialties: We'll begin with an open conversation about what brings you to therapy. Together, we'll explore your goals and what meaningful change would look like for you. Toward the end of our session, I'll share a brief overview of how I approach therapy, what our work together might look like, and answer any questions you may have. This ensures that you feel comfortable and confident that we're a good fit. Credentials & Experience: I have 14 years of experience helping children, adults, and families in schools and communities navigating life transitions. I am licensed in the state of California and also hold a Pupil Personnel Services Credential. My specialty is stress managment, grief, and adjustment.
