About Maria

Maria Capehart is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with five years of clinical experience. She provides bilingual care in English and Spanish and draws on an integrative skill set to help adults and couples navigate mood concerns, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, and life transitions.

Background and approach

Her background includes work with co-occurring mental health disorders and with clients facing immigration-related stressors and identity questions. Her style emphasizes collaboration and respect for each person’s expertise about their own life.

Maria blends client-centered techniques with cognitive behavioral methods and motivational interviewing to help clients reframe unhelpful thinking, build coping skills, and strengthen self-worth. She also addresses trauma-related concerns and supports clients through grief, parenting challenges, and major life changes.

Clients looking for a bilingual, empathetic clinician in Florida will find a practitioner who focuses on practical strategies while honoring individual values and goals.

Approaches That Guide Online Care

Maria blends cognitive behavioral techniques with client-centered principles to shape online sessions that are practical and person-focused. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and to develop concrete coping strategies for anxiety, depression, addiction-related patterns, and impulsivity. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaboration so clients feel heard and lead the pace and direction of their healing.

Picking the right approach is part of the work together; the therapist will collaborate with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. That process may involve combining techniques and adjusting the plan as needs change, with the client actively shaping therapy priorities.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more accessible and flexible for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow clients to engage in skills practice, motivational conversations, and emotionally focused work from where they are, helping integrate therapeutic tools into everyday life while accommodating work, family, and travel demands.
