Dr. Maria Humphrey

Dr. Maria Humphrey is a Florida LMFT with ten years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and major life transitions. She also helps with life purpose concerns and related issues such as caregiver stress, bereavement, and isolation.

She uses a mix of client-centered, existential, psychodynamic, solution-focused, and trauma-focused approaches. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps as well as exploring what feels stuck. Conversations look at patterns that keep problems repeating and at small changes that can shift daily routines.

Maria favors straightforward talk and collaborative planning. She listens for what matters most to each person and then tests short, usable strategies - things someone can try between sessions. She also supports people facing aging and geriatric concerns, cancer and hospice related issues, immigration stresses, and communication problems.

Her background as a licensed marriage and family therapist shapes a relational outlook on problems. That perspective helps when addressing family conflict, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, or forgiveness work. She brings a decade of practice experience to those clinical areas and to mood disorders and trauma-informed care.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking.

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It helps people clarify values, feel understood, and choose next steps that fit their life.

Existential Therapy addresses questions about meaning and direction. It supports people who feel empty or uncertain about purpose after big changes, helping them weigh choices and accept responsibility for personal priorities.

The therapist sees finding the right approach as collaborative. She will work with each person to test methods and adjust as needed, using initial sessions to identify whether more reflective work or short-term problem solving fits best.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking since no formats are listed in the biography. Practical benefits of remote sessions include easier integration into daily routines, shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and options that may reduce travel time. These features can make it simpler to keep momentum when juggling caregiving, work, medical appointments, or other life demands.
