About Maritza
Maritza Ejenbaum is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 36 years of experience in psychotherapy. She is licensed in North Carolina and Florida and works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma and addictions. She also addresses codependency and issues tied to self-esteem, parenting, and life transitions.
Her work focuses on practical skills people can use right away. She teaches ways to manage stress so it stops controlling daily life. She offers tools for coping with anxiety and depression and for reducing addictive behaviors. Sessions also look at how early experiences shape current reactions and relationships.
Maritza uses several clinical approaches to match what each person needs. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at relationship patterns and on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Emotionally-focused and client-centered methods are used when emotional expression and acceptance are the priority.
People who struggle with people-pleasing, trouble setting boundaries, or staying emotionally overwhelmed often come for help with clearer limits and steadier moods. She also supports those facing grief, midlife questions, and career or identity concerns. Spanish-speaking clients can work with her in Spanish.
Her practice emphasizes respect and collaboration. She aims to build trust and to work with each person’s individual style rather than applying a single method. To begin, people complete a short matching form and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can help identify recurring ways of relating and practice new responses to reduce reactivity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In remote sessions a therapist can teach practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thoughts and set achievable behavior goals.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which methods to try based on needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process means plans can change if something isn't helping or if different skills are needed.
Confirm the exact session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online appointments can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when useful. They also offer flexibility for quieter surroundings, lower data use when needed, or scheduling during a work break. Licensed professionals and therapists can explain format details when you begin the matching process.
