Meet Maria
What was your path to becoming a PSR?
I became a PSR shortly after I graduated with my Bachelor's degree at UCF in Psychology. I wanted hands-on experience working with clients and the PSR job was the perfect fit for that desire!
What should someone know about working with you?
I take a very personalized approach to each client and their needs, meaning I ask clients as many questions as possible to get an idea of what goals we need to work toward. Once that is established I try to find activities that they personally enjoy that will help achieve their goals!
