Background and approach
Maria is an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in Florida and offers care in English and Spanish.

She also supports those facing isolation, immigration-related stress, and the emotional effects of major life changes like divorce or bereavement.
Therapy integrates several approaches to meet each person’s needs. Elements of client-centered work help clients feel heard. Solution-focused strategies aim to identify quick, practical steps to reduce distress.
Psychodynamic and existential perspectives are used when exploring long-standing patterns and questions about meaning and purpose. Dr. Humphrey offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.
She frames sessions around your priorities and helps you find ways to manage symptoms and build resilience over time.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and giving space for honest talk; it helps when someone needs acceptance and practical guidance for everyday struggles. Solution-focused work zeroes in on concrete goals and small changes that can make a quick difference, useful for stress, anxiety, and coping tasks. Psychodynamic ideas look at repeated patterns and past experiences that shape how someone reacts today, which can help when problems keep coming back despite best efforts.Choosing the right approach is part of the process and happens together. The therapist will listen to your concerns, clarify your goals, and suggest methods that match your needs and preferences. This is a collaborative decision and can shift over time as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give practical options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can work well during a break at work. Live chat or text-based messaging offer brief check-ins and a low-friction way to stay connected between longer sessions. These formats make scheduling easier and help people keep therapy going despite a busy life.
