    About Maria

    Maria Myslewicz-Weese is a licensed clinical social worker in North Carolina with 12 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel stuck by listening carefully and creating a plan that fits their life. She treats others with respect, sensitivity, and compassion during each step of the process.

    Her main work covers stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. She also helps people facing relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, grief, and recovery from trauma or addiction. Career stress, anger, sleep problems, and mood challenges such as bipolar disorder are also part of her practice.

    Maria uses a range of approaches to match what a person needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small steps toward them. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a warm, nonjudgmental space, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns.

    Sessions are shaped around each person’s goals and readiness to change. Conversations are practical and focused on what matters now, whether that’s coping tools, communication skills, or rebuilding motivation. Maria aims to help people find more satisfying ways to manage daily life.

    She welcomes direct, collaborative work and helps clients make concrete plans they can try between sessions. The process starts with one step and builds from there.

  2. Approaches that guide online sessions

    Maria often combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. ACT helps people name what matters to them and take small practical steps toward those values. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on offering a supportive, nonjudgmental space where a person’s concerns are heard and respected.

    She may also use Motivational Interviewing techniques to build readiness for change and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy methods to spot and change unhelpful thoughts. These approaches can help with anxiety, depression, motivation, relationship difficulties, and coping with life transitions. The therapist and client decide together which methods will best match current goals and preferences.

    If you are considering online therapy, check the session format options before booking to confirm what is currently offered. Online work can make it easier to schedule sessions around work, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. The focus remains on practical tools, improving communication, and building motivation so progress can continue between meetings.
