The Ridge Therapy, PLLC - Maria Dimova

I understand the weight trials can have on one’s shoulders, and you do not have to carry them alone. I have experience working with those who have endured trauma, illness, stress, and the uncertainty life transition can bring. I am devoted to empowering those experiencing anxiety, depression, women’s issues, identity issues, new parenting, communication, and relationship issues. I have a passion to serve others through the many pivotal moments life brings. During these seasons, the therapy room is a safe environment for such change and exploration, whether in individual, couples, or family therapy. I would be honored to support you in your therapeutic journey. I use a variety of approaches and resources including Narrative Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) while fostering your strengths to help you thrive and create change. Further, I have specialized training through Postpartum Support International which is utilized in treating perinatal mental health, as well as Gottman Method Training (Level 1). I utilize an evidenced-based perspective to cultivate an approach to treatment that is systemic in nature as well as research-informed. In addition, I work with couples for premarital counseling as a certified Prepare/Enrich Facilitator. I believe an eclectic approach to therapy is necessary in finding innovative ways to problem solve and provide tools to support your therapeutic goals. I believe family therapy and couples therapy can be necessary to address key issues and heal wounds from within while also learning to communicate your needs and boundaries. As your therapist, I will advocate for you to find the healthiest version of yourself while on this journey of rediscovery. I am dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and their families, grow from the challenges life often puts in our path. I am committed to offering services that are inclusive of all genders, cultures, faiths, and races. The Ridge is welcoming of change and ready to engage with those who are seeking something new. We’ll agree on the goals you are seeking at the beginning of our work. I’ll challenge you each to own your part and together we’ll work toward achieving the results you desire.
