SHE/HER

Hello! I’m Mariah Colón, and I am a graduate student currently pursuing
my Master of Social Work at the University of Maryland, Baltimore. I believe therapy should be a place where every part of you is welcome. My goal is to create a warm, collaborative, and culturally responsive space where you feel seen, heard, and empowered to explore your identity, relationships,
emotions, and lived experiences without judgment.
I am passionate about how culture, family, community, and systemic experiences can shape our mental health and sense of self. I enjoy working with children (ages 7+), adolescents, and young adults navigating life transitions, identity exploration, self-esteem, familial and relationship challenges, trauma, and the
impacts of generational patterns. I also have a growing interest in supporting couples and hope to expand my training in relationship and sex therapy throughout my career. My work is grounded in person-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed care while drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), somatic approaches, feminist theory, and culturally responsive, community-informed practice. I
believe there is no one-size-fits-all path to healing and enjoy collaborating
with clients to discover what feels most meaningful and authentic to them.
